Chocolate biscuit tart shell:
To make a homemade tart shell, mix 175g chocolate biscuit crumbs with 90g melted butter and press firmly into a lightly greased 20 or 23cm pie dish or tart tin, covering the bottom and the sides.
Tip:
To serve, try lightly dusting the top of the tart with good quality cocoa powder, and give each slice a dollop of whipped cream.
