We put the egg-cream mixture in a water bath. Stir with a whisk "eights" for about 10 minutes. It is necessary that the air bubbles completely evaporate, remove the excess foam with a slotted spoon.

Step 10

Roll out the dough, on a floured surface, into a layer about a centimeter thick. We cut out circles and form tartlets in molds. Lubricate the inside of the tartlets with egg white so that the creme brulee does not soak the dough. We put in the oven for 3 minutes at a temperature of 180 degrees. Remove from oven and pour over egg white mixture. Pour warm water into a large baking dish, place the molds there, which should be about two-thirds in the water. We bake at a temperature of 120 degrees for about half an hour. The readiness of creme brulee can be checked by tapping on the molds (creme brulee may be watery in the center, it should be strong along the periphery).

Step 11

We take out the finished dessert from the oven, cool it, put it in a cold place for several hours, preferably at night. Sprinkle the cooled creme brulee with sugar, using a gas burner, caramelize the sugar. It is necessary to caramelize sugar only after the dessert has completely cooled, otherwise it will mix with the cream. You also need to caramelize just before serving.

Chocolate tartlets with orange creme brulee - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Yes, you can substitute walnuts with other nuts like almonds, pecans, or hazelnuts. Make sure to grind them finely before adding them to the dough.
These tartlets are best enjoyed within 2-3 days. Store them in the refrigerator to maintain the creme brulee's texture and prevent the crust from becoming soggy. It is best to caramelize the sugar right before serving.
Yes, you can make the tart shells and the creme brulee filling separately ahead of time. Store them separately and assemble them just before serving. Caramelize the topping right before serving to prevent it from melting.
Substitute the cream with a full-fat coconut cream for the creme brulee. Be aware that this will affect the flavor of the final dish.
You can use the broiler in your oven. Place the tartlets on a baking sheet and broil them for a very short time, watching carefully, until the sugar is caramelized. Be mindful not to burn it.
Yes, you can reduce the sugar, but it will affect the taste and texture of the creme brulee and crust. Start by reducing it gradually, for example, reducing the sugar in the crust by one tablespoon or in the creme brulee base by half a tablespoon. Remember that sugar affects the structure of your creme brulee.
These chocolate tartlets are delightful on their own, but you can enhance them with a dollop of whipped cream, fresh berries (like raspberries or strawberries), or a dusting of cocoa powder.
Freezing the tartlets is not recommended, especially after the creme brulee has been added. The texture of the creme brulee will change upon thawing. However, you can freeze the baked tart shells before adding filling. Make sure to cool completely before wrapping them well and freezing.
