Chocolate Tartlets
I filled the chocolãte tãrtlets with chocolãte creãm cheese icing ãnd summer berries. You cãn ãlso use buttercreãm, jãm, pãstry creãm, chocolãte mousse, or custãrd ãs ã filling. Strãwberry hãlves ãnd other fruits ãre greãt to gãrnish the tãrtlets ãs well. It’s best to ãssemble the tãrtlets on the dãy they will be eãten ãs otherwise the fruits ãnd icing will soften the tãrtlet shells.
