    Do you celebrate Valentine's Day?

    This year, my teenage son is FINALLY old (and mature) enough to watch his little brothers long enough for my husband and I to actually go out to eat - without the kids!

    It's SO easy to stick to a keto diet while eating at most restaurants. The only thing I usually have to "just say no" to, is dessert.

    Most of the time that's no big deal, but you can't have Valentine's Day without dessert, right??

    Instead of going without, I am whipping these little tarts up ahead of time so that we can enjoy them when we get home.

    They are super decadent and you can make them with dark or milk chocolate to adjust the richness to your liking.

    This recipe makes 2 very generous servings if you are using a mini tart pan. You could also easily divide this into 4 servings using silicone muffin liners or even 8 mini, bite size "muffins".

    Also, I don't actually have mini tart pans. Instead I used THESE "treat cups" that my mom gave me. They actually worked perfectly so I highly recommend them!

    They are not technically made for baking, but this goes into the oven so briefly, that Ihad no problem at all. For reference, they are 3.75" in diameter.

    Servings 2 servings
    Prep Time 10 minutes mins
    Cook Time 10 minutes mins

    Ingredients
      

    For the hazelnut "Crust"

    • ⅓ cup shelled hazelnuts
    • 1 tablespoon butter, melted
    • 10-20 drops liquid stevia

    For the chocolate filling:

    • 1 oz sugar free chocolate chips (I use Lily's)
    • ½ cup Heavy whipping cream
    • 1 tablespoon butter
    • 1 egg yolk

    Instructions
     

    For the hazelnut "crust"

    • Preheat your oven to 325 degrees F and prepare your treat cups, tart pans, or muffin liners with non-stick spray. 
    • Pulse the hazelnuts in a food processor until they become a fine flour-like consistency.
    • In a small bowl, combine the melted butter, stevia and the ground hazelnuts, reserving about 1 ½ teaspoon of the hazelnuts. 
    • Evenly divide the hazelnut mixture between your tart pans. Press the mixture into the bottom and sides of the pan. If you are using a paper liner, be careful not to smash the accordion folds.
    • Bake in preheated oven for 5-8 minutes until just beginning to brown. Remove from oven and set aside

    For the filling:

    • In a small saucepan, over medium heat, bring the heavy cream and butter to a low simmer, stirring frequently. 
    • Stir in the chocolate and stir constantly until it is completely melted.
    • Remove from the heat and whisk in the egg yolk. Continue whisking until the chocolate has a smooth and creamy consistency.
    • Pour into baked crusts, sprinkle with reserved hazelnut flour, and chill in the refrigerator at least 1 hour or until firm 
    • To serve: Carefully remove from the tart pan or liner and enjoy!
