Throwback Thursday: Fallen Chocolate Soufflé Tart

IMG_3120 copy

Short week short post!

As I mentioned yesterday, I’ve been on a dessert craze, practicing furiously on the weekdays and weekends. One of my pastry coworkers-turned-friends from a certain place has a fantastic home kitchen that could rival some professional restaurants’. Even though he’s off to start his own venture in Laguna Beach (Socal folks, look out), we’ve been getting together once a week to streamline his recipes and my cleanliness skills – I have a tendency to spread messes which is  definitely not the greatest when there are a million dishes to do and it’s time for bed.

A couple weeks ago, he taught me how to make this gorgeous fallen chocolate soufflé tart – again, with some good quality chocolate like I discussed yesterday. I won’t post the recipe, as it’s not mine, but I did want to share photos of the final product, complete with a rainy day background and February-red motif.

Chocolate on chocolate.

      It is, and the fact that it’s a “fallen” soufflé means that you can’t even mess it up 🙂

    Um. So. YES. Tell your friend SoCal is ready, and NorCal is also ready for this gorgeous tart (thank goodness I frequent both locales, heh!).
