Chocolate Macadamia Nut Tart

Crust
4 ounces softened cream cheese
1/2 cup plus 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 1/3 cups unbleached flour

In a bowl, beat together cream cheese and butter. Add flour and blend until pea-size crumbs form.

Knead into a ball. Divide dough into two equal portions. Roll out the portions to fit two 7-inch tart pans with removable bottoms, or pie tins. Put dough in pans. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes. advertisement

Filling
2 1/2 cups roasted macadamia nuts, whole and half pieces
5 ounces unsweetened chocolate, chopped
4 teaspoons unsalted butter
4 eggs
1/2 cup sugar
1 1/3 cups corn syrup
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Heat oven to 350 degrees. If using roasted, salted macadamias, wrap them in a paper towel and rub off as much salt as possible.

Put chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl and heat until thoroughly melted. Stir periodically to speed up melting. Add butter and heat until melted.

In a medium bowl, mix eggs, sugar and corn syrup until well blended. Add chocolate mixture and vanilla and mix well. Fold in the nuts. Remove plastic wrap from tart pans. Divide filling between pans. Bake in the middle of the oven for 35 to 40 minutes.

Sweetened whipped cream
1 cup whipping cream
2 tablespoons Kahana Royale (macadamia nut), Frangelico (hazelnut) or amaretto (almond) liqueur
or
2 tablespoons powdered sugar and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Combine whipping cream and liqueur (or whipping cream, powdered sugar and vanilla) in a medium bowl and whip with mixer until stiff. Garnish tart with sweetened whipped cream.

Makes two tarts, 6 servings each.
