Steps:
- Cut ½ cup of cold unsalted butter into 18 small pieces and place it in the freezer for about 10 minutes.
- In a food processor combine the dry ingredients and pulse a few times.
- Add the cut-up butter and pulse until the mixture resembles coarse ground meal.
- Add the slightly beaten eggs and the vanilla extract and pulse until the dough comes together.
- Turn out the dough on a lightly floured wooden board and form it into a smooth disc by pressing the dough together.
- Shape the dough into a flat disc, wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for a minimal 30 minutes before using it.
- Break (or chop) both the dark and semi-sweet chocolate into little pieces and place it in a heatproof bowl.
- Bring a pot of water to a simmer.
- Set bowl of chocolate over a pot of water. Ensure water does not touch the bottom of the bowl.
- When the chocolate is almost completely melted, remove it from heat and stir to finish melting.
- Set aside to cool completely.
- In a large mixing bowl (of a stand mixer) beat the ricotta and orange zest at low speed with the paddle attachment until smooth (about 2 minutes). Make sure to scrape down the sides of the bowl.
- Gradually add the sugar, whipping cream, rum and melted and cooled chocolate. Combine this whole mixture together. Set aside while we roll out the pastry dough.
- Preheat oven to 375°F/190°C.
- Prepare a 9-inch tart pan by buttering and flouring, or use non-stick spray and set aside.
- Cut off one-third of the dough, wrap it in plastic wrap and refrigerate it. We will be using this dough to create the strips for the lattice top.
- Place two-thirds of the dough on a sheet of lightly floured parchment paper. Roll out the dough into a circle that is roughly 2 inches larger in diameter than the tart pan, about ⅜- ¼ inch (approx. ½ cm) thick.
- Transfer the dough to the pan, and gently press it into the sides and bottom. Trim the excess overhang of dough with a knife. Place it in the refrigerator.
- Lightly flour the same sheet of parchment paper. Use the rolling pin to roll out the reserved one-third dough in a 9-10 inch circle. Using a pastry cutter, cut into 10 (¾-inch) strips. Place in the refrigerator for about 10 minutes.
- Remove the pasta frolla tart shell from the refrigerator and spoon in the chocolate ricotta filling.
- Spread the filling evenly over the base of the crust with the help of an offset spatula.
- To create a lattice top, remove the pastry strips from the refrigerator and brush each strip with egg wash. Brush the rim of the dough in the tart pan as well.
- Place five strips of dough first in one direction, then in the other. Remove any excess dough with a knife. Refer to the photo in the article for more details.
- Bake for approximately 40 minutes or until the center filling is set.
- Cool completely on a wire rack.
- Refrigerate until ready to serve.
- Optional: Dust with icing sugar and/or serve with sweet ricotta.
