Ganache is often used to add that perfect finishing touch to a dessert but I think we need to celebrate it in its pure form. Truffles are a great start since they are essentially a ball of ganache dipped in more chocolate. This tart is the simpler cousin of truffles. A simple tart dough is made in minutes in the food processor or mixer (or by hand, for those with less equipped kitchens). After the shell is baked, pour in the ganache, chill until set and voila - you have the answer to that wicked chocolate craving, pick-me-up after a bad day, celebratory treat after a good one, or if you're me, maybe just a Tuesday.
