Strawberry White Chocolate Mousse Tart Food

WHITE CHOCOLATE STRAWBERRY TART

Steps:

• To make the crust: In a medium bowl, mix together crushed biscuits and melted butter, and mix until combined and moistened. Press the mixture onto the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch (23cm) tart pan. Place it in the fridge for 1 hour or in the freezer for 30 minutes to firm up before adding the filling.
• To make the filling: Melt chocolate over bain marie or in the microwave in 30-second intervals. White chocolate is very sensitive to heat and can separate so keep an eye on it. Add strawberry puree and mix until smooth and combined. Let cool slightly before adding to the whipped cream.
• Using an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, whisk heavy cream until soft peaks form (they should hold their shape but have a soft texture). Using a spatula, gently fold half of the chocolate mixture into the whipped cream, then fold in the other half. Pour mixture over chilled crust and freeze just until set, about 30 minutes (if you place it in the fridge instead of freezer, chill for longer, until set).
• To make the jam glaze: warm the jam in the microwave, then strain the mixture through a fine mesh strainer to remove the seeds. Gently spread or pour while it's still slightly warm and runny over the tart and tilt the pan to run the glaze all over the top until it touches the crust.
• Garnish with whipped cream and fresh strawberries, if you like.
• Tart will keep, covered well, for up to 5 days in the fridge.

STRAWBERRY WHITE CHOCOLATE MOUSSE TART

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350ºF. In a medium bowl, stir together graham cracker crumbs with sugar, then add melted butter and stir until thoroughly combined. Press the mixture into a 9" tart pan with removable bottom and bake 10 minutes. Cool completely on a wire rack.
• Meanwhile, make the filling. Combine the white chocolate and 1/3 cup of the whipping cream in a medium microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on 50% power for one minute, stir, then microwave again in 30-second intervals until chocolate is about 75% melted; stir to melt the rest. Cool the chocolate mixture to room temperature on the counter (do not refrigerate or it will cool unevenly and harden at the edges).
• Whip the remaining cream with electric mixer to stiff peaks. Fold 1/3 of the whipped cream into the cooled chocolate (by gently cutting it down through the centre with a spatula and scooping back up and over until fully incorporated). This lightens the mixture so you don't deflate the whipped cream. Gently fold in the remaining whipped cream.
• Scrape the filling into the cooled crust and smooth the top. Refrigerate until set, 2-3 hours, then top with the strawberries. Melt the jam in a small saucepan or in the microwave, then brush on top. Serve immediately or return the tart to the refrigerator to set the jam, about 30 minutes.

• Mix together the chocolate wafer cookies and sugar in a large bowl. Pour in the melted butter and mix until well combined. Press the mixture into an 11-inch tart pan. Transfer to a baking sheet and bake for 10 minutes. Let cool completely.
• For the filling: Combine the cream, milk and freeze-dried strawberries in a medium pot. Bring to a simmer, remove from the heat and add the white chocolate chips and vanilla. Let stand for a few minutes to let the chocolate melt, then whisk until the chocolate is blended into the cream mixture. Transfer to a blender and blend until the strawberries are pureed and the mixture is smooth. Pour into the prepared crust and refrigerate until set, 3 to 4 hours. Once set, place in the freezer for 30 minutes.
• For the topping: Pour the chocolate shell topping over the filling to completely cover. Arrange the chocolate-covered strawberries in the center of the tart.

STRAWBERRY AND WHITE CHOCOLATE MOUSSE TART

Steps:

• For crust: Blend flour, sugar, and salt in processor. Add butter and cut in using on/off turns until mixture resembles coarse meal. Whisk egg yolk and 1 tablespoon ice water in small bowl to blend; add to processor and process until moist clumps form, adding more ice water by teaspoonfuls if dough is dry. Gather dough into ball; flatten into disk. Roll out dough on floured surface to 13-inch round. Transfer dough to 9-inch-diameter tart pan with removable bottom. Trim overhang to 1/2 inch. Fold overhang in and press onto sides, forming double-thick sides. Pierce crust all over with fork. Freeze crust 30 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 375°F Line crust with foil; fill with dried beans or pie weights. Bake until crust sides are light brown, about 25 minutes. Remove foil and beans; bake until crust is cooked through and golden brown, about 20 minutes longer. Cool crust completely in pan on rack.
• For mousse: Combine white chocolate and 1/4 cup whipping cream in large metal bowl. Set bowl over saucepan of simmering water (do not allow bottom of bowl to touch water) and stir until chocolate is melted and smooth. Remove bowl from over water; cool chocolate mixture until lukewarm, about 15 minutes.
• Beat remaining 1 cup whipping cream and vanilla in large bowl until peaks form. Using clean dry beaters, beat egg whites with cream of tartar in medium bowl until stiff but not dry. Fold whites into chocolate mixture, then fold in whipped cream. Transfer mixture to cooled crust; smooth top. Chill overnight.
• Combine jam and lemon juice in small saucepan; bring to simmer, stirring over medium heat until jam melts. Remove from heat. Arrange sliced strawberries in concentric circles atop tart. Brush berries with melted jam mixture. Chill tart up to 2 hours and serve.

STRAWBERRY-TOPPED LIME MOUSSE TART

Steps:

• For crust:
• Blend first 4 ingredients in processor until nuts are ground but some small pieces still remain. Add butter; cut in using on/off turns until mixture resembles fine meal. Blend in enough water by teaspoonfuls until mixture begins to form clumps. Gather dough into ball; flatten into disk. Press dough evenly over bottom and up sides of 9-inch-diameter tart pan with removable bottom. Freeze crust until firm, about 30 minutes. Preheat oven to 375°F. Bake crust until deep golden brown, about 30 minutes. Transfer to rack and cool.

• Place lime juice in small bowl; sprinkle gelatin over. Let stand 10 minutes to soften. Bring 1/4 cup cream to simmer in medium saucepan. Reduce heat to low. Add white chocolate; stir until melted and smooth. Add gelatin mixture; stir to dissolve. Mix in peel. Chill until cold and beginning to thicken but not set, stirring often, about 45 minutes.

Chill until mousse sets, about 4 hours. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate.)
• For topping:
• Decoratively arrange berries atop mousse. Melt jam in small saucepan over low heat, stirring often. Brush enough jam over berries to glaze. (Can be made 4 hours ahead. Cover; chill.)
