Makes

6

Ingredients

6 prebaked individual pastry tartlets
3 tablespoons Buderim Ginger Original Ginger Marmalade or Ginger Lemon & Lime Marmalade
125g Italian-style mascarpone
4 pieces (20g) Buderim Ginger Naked Ginger, finely chopped
50g your favourite dark cooking chocolate or 70% cocoa dark chocolate, melted

Decoration

2-4 pieces additional Buderim Ginger Naked Ginger, finely slice for decoration OR

Method

  • Divide and spread marmalade on the base of each of the tartlets
  • Combine the mascarpone and finely chopped Naked Ginger, mix well.
  • Divide and carefully spread the mascarpone mixture over marmalade, piling more in centre to form a pyramid-shape.
  • Carefully melt the chocolate either over hot water or as per manufacturers instructions in microwave oven. If chocolate is too thick, just add a drop of vegetable oil, this will make chocolate more manageable to dip tartlets. Keep chocolate over a bowl of hot water.
  • Dunk each tartlet case into melted chocolate face down, so chocolate liberally coats filling of each tart.

Decorate with either the additional finely sliced Buderim Ginger Naked Ginger.
