A decadent treat that is easy to make, and easier to enjoy.
You will need:
20cm (approximately) sweet pastry case, either ready made, or blind baked.
300g of white chocolate
250g Mascarpone cheese
150ml Double cream
Approximately 6 strawberries cut in to chunks.
Icing sugar to dust
To make:
Break chocolate into a glass bowl, and melt over simmering water on a pan. I much prefer this method to microwave, as I found out on one occasion that it is indeed possible to burn chocolate while melting in the microwave. Feel free to do it this way if you prefer. When using the bowl over water method, it is better to not let the bowl touch the water. Stir occasionally.
Once the chocolate has melted, add the mascarpone cheese and melt together, stirring occasionally again.
Mix the chocolate and cheese together well, which forms a mixture that looks rather like lemon curd.
Set to one side and let the mixture cool down, stirring now and then.
Next whip the cream until relatively stiff.
Once the melted chocolate mixture has cooled, mix in with the cream until thoroughly blended. Add the strawberries. Stir in. Pour into the pastry case and chill for at least an hour.
To serve, dust with icing sugar and add some fruit.
OhMyGoodness! This sounds, and looks! absolutely delicious! Need to keep a note of the recipe.

It is rather yummy Lauren and far too easy to make (which can cause a problem with how often I’ve made it). Advantage is you can only eat it in small amounts.
This is by far the most delicious recipe I have ever seen on a blog! And Like Jen said far too easy to make which for my other half he will enjoy but mine & his waistline may not!

Georgie, this may help, but I made mini tarts once. They were bite sized, so I limited myself to one. Not that it stopped the husband take a handful.
This looks absolutely delicious! White chocolate and strawberry make the perfect combination!
