Ingredients
For the crust
1/4cupbuttersoften
3/4cupflour
2tspcocoa powder
30mlmilk
For the filling
2pearsmedium sized, in cube
1/4cupwhite chocolate chips
Some shaved dark chocolate to taste
Instructions
Mix the butter, the flour and cocoa powder together until it is crumbly.
Add the milk at once and mix gently to form a bowl of dough. Don’t over-work it, just enough so all the crumbs are all picked up. Roll it (add a little bit of flour to prevent from sticking but very little) and place onto a pie plate.
Place the pears on top.
Bake in the oven for 20-25 minutes at 375F.
Put the white chocolate chips in a ramekin with a table spoon of water and melt it in the microwave and drizzle it on your tart.
Allow to cool down and place the shaved chocolate for presentation
