Exquisite Coconut Tart with Passion Fruit Ganache

In a mixing bowl, combine flour and powdered sugar. Add in the unsalted butter cut into small cubes, and mix until you achieve a crumbly texture. Finally, add the egg yolk and knead until the dough is smooth.

Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. This will help the flavors meld together and make it easier to roll out.

Preheat your oven to 180 degrees Celsius (350 degrees Fahrenheit). Roll out the chilled dough on a floured surface and place it into a tart pan, pressing down gently.

Prick the bottom with a fork to prevent bubbling. Bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until lightly golden. Allow to cool before adding layers.

Melt the dark chocolate and butter together in a small saucepan over low heat, stirring until smooth. Pour this mixture onto the cooled tart base and spread it evenly.

Let it set in the fridge for about 10 minutes while you prepare the next layer.

For the ganache, heat the heavy cream and passion fruit puree in a small pot until just steaming. Pour this mixture over the dark chocolate in a bowl and let it sit for 2 minutes.

Stir until the chocolate is completely melted and the mixture is smooth. Pour this ganache over the crispy layer and let it set in the fridge for another 30 minutes.

Soak the gelatin sheets in cold water for about 5 minutes. In a saucepan, heat the coconut milk and sugar until the sugar dissolves.

Add the softened gelatin to the warm coconut mixture and stir until completely dissolved. Cool it down slightly before folding in the whipped heavy cream.

Once the ganache has set, pour the coconut mousse on top and smooth it out. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.

For the mango/passion fruit confit, combine the mango puree and sugar in a small saucepan, heating until the sugar is fully dissolved. Let it cool before pouring over the chilled tart when ready to serve.

Carefully remove the tart from the pan. Slice it into pieces and serve chilled. This exquisite coconut tart with passion fruit ganache is sure to delight your guests with its burst of flavors!
