Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C). In a large mixing bowl, sift together all-purpose flour, powdered sugar, almond flour, cocoa powder, and salt until well combined.
- Cut in the cold butter using a pastry cutter or your fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Add in a beaten egg and mix until a soft dough forms. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 10-15 minutes.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out the chilled dough to about 1/8 inch thick and cut into circles for tart rings.
- Freeze the shaped dough in the tart rings for 30 minutes.
- Bake the chilled tart shells for 12-15 minutes until dry and firm. Let cool completely.
- Heat heavy cream in a saucepan until steamy, then pour over finely chopped semisweet chocolate and stir until smooth.
- Whip the remaining heavy cream with powdered sugar until soft peaks form, then gently fold into the chocolate mixture.
- Fill the cooled tart shells with the chocolate mousse and chill for at least 4 hours.
- Before serving, drizzle reserved ganache over each tart and garnish as desired.

Notes
Ensure your butter and cream are well-chilled and gently fold the whipped cream into chocolate to retain air for a light texture. Use nonstick spray for easy release of tart shells.
