This looks so tempting. Nothing like fudgey chocolate and cashews! Also the addition of the cointreau makes this even more delicious. Yum!
Thank you so much!!
This is a wonderful chocolate treat I agree the addition of Cointreau adds the little oomph..
Yes it does! :)
Hi,
I was just wondering, you never mentioned how much almonds to use in your listing of ingrediants...also what happened to the cashew nuts? and do u mix the almonds with the wet ingrediants?
after the frosting do you put it into the refrigerator or bake it some more?
sorry, just some questions i had. Thank you for the recipe, I can't wait to try it out.
I'm so sorry! I make this tart with different nuts. This time round it was almonds but I for some reason I wrote cashews. Once you frost the tart. No need to bake it again. Keep it in the refrigerator. It's very rich and chocolaty! :)
I have one more question. do you add nuts into it or is it almond meal flour? sorry i dont bake very much but i would love to try this recipe for this years thanksgiving dinner dessert. thank you for your help.
Almond meal is all you need. It's almond grounded up super fine to use in place of flour. Good luck! :)
thank you so much, i admire your work :D
That means so much! Thank you!
