No-Bake Strawberry Chocolate Tart
I’ve always been a chocoholic, but over the past couple of years I’ve tried to curb that craving a bit. However sometimes you just have to give in to temptation.
With Father’s Day quickly approaching and the warm weather starting to settle in around the Midwest I thought this would be an ideal recipe to share.
I spotted it from Ella of Home Cooking Adventure, and immediately knew I had to try it. What I love about the recipe besides the fact that the chocolate is velvety and rich, it’s incredibly delicious, and requires no baking! So when the weather is hot outside you don’t have to worry about heating up your kitchen.
It’s best prepared the day before you plan to serve it. If you’re not a fan of strawberries then raspberries would be a nice option, or any other fruit you enjoy dipped into chocolate.
Don’t feel like you need to run out and get a 5 x 14-inch tart pan, a round or square one will do too! You could also prepare this in a baking dish just be sure to line it with foil before pressing the Oreo crust into the bottom of the pan. When ready to serve, just lift the foil out of the pan and set it onto a work surface to slice. The edges may not be as pretty but it will still taste amazing!
Below is a video I created sharing the simple steps to preparing this No-Bake Strawberry Chocolate Tart, plus a printed version that you can save. I know you’re going to love it.
