They will love them. I just threw them together as an experiment and took them to work and I got several compliments that people thought it was one of the best things they had eaten in a while. I love surprises like that!
Love how you wrote about ‘the small stuff’. Yes, love to have you share with us about what’s for dinner. These choc tortes look absolutely delectable. Love to try the recipe one of these days.
Every day I praise the “small stuff” in my life.. because it means my life is just perfect the way it is. I worry about the “big stuff” that pops up every now and then. What pretty little cakes.. it’s hard to believe they’re flourless! xx
Thanks. I’ll let you know how I make out. This is my husband’s favorite dessert but I can’t be trusted with all of them beckoning me from the fridge. 🙂
These looked scrumptious and couldn’t wait to try them. Unfortunately, I got so excited and ahead of myself when I was making them that I inadvertently forgot to add the whipped frothy eggs (which were in another bowl on the other side of the kitchen) before pouring them into the muffin pan!! UGH! I know, right??! Don’t you hate when that happens?!
So, on a side note, I thought I’d mention that it wasn’t a total disaster… If you leave out the eggs, just put them in the frig or freezer. They firm up enough to taste like a decadent dark chocolate candy.
Just a note though… they are messy. They WILL melt on contact with the heat of your hands, so keep them in the paper liners or eat them fast. LOL And a little goes a long way, they’re rich this way, very dense.
But… if life gives you lemons, make lemonade, I say!
Thanks for this wonderful recipe. Can’t wait to try it … the RIGHT way… again next week, heheh!
So, couldn’t wait! Had to make them again, the right way. Turned out wonderful. Fabulous, either way!
I see this recipe with the potential for so many variations. Raspberries are intense with flavor, but pomegranate would work wonders, orange is a nice complement (orange zest) or even lemon zest. Yum!
Oh good! I’m so glad you gave it a second go! Yes, these do have a lot of possibilities. I haven’t made them in quite some time. You are inspiring me to get at them again!
I made these tarts for the graduating class before mine, during a culinary course I took in 2014. They were a huge hit, especially with 2 of the judges that graded us for our creations – a husband/wife duo of whom the female half was gluten sensitive!
So far so good. Doing a sugarless version….sweetening chocolate with coconut sugar. About to do ganache…can I do ganache and raspberry, and store in refrigerator over night…or do you think something horrible will happen to raspberry? Maybe wait until arrive at family home, tomorrow, to ganache and raspberry (2 new baking verbs)
Hi Susan! Just now seeing this question. You could definitely assemble them and put them in the fridge overnight. But if you waited it would work out okay too!
Oh Bettie, I can always count on you to turn out a great recipe. These rocked! I decorated w thinly sliced blood oranges since berries not in season and they looked and tasted great.
For anyone wondering if mini muffin tins are crucial, I don’t own a set so I baked these in 12 reg muffin tins. They were maybe 1.5” high and took 10-11 min. I used dark chocolate in both torte and ganache since that was what I had and they were tasty, dense and rich, almost like less-sweet fudge. Bettie made a good call to use the mini tin size because two bites is all you need to satisfy. If that’s not an option you’ll still have fine results if you use the regular size.
WOW! This looks delicious!
We are having friends over Friday and I think I will make these. Yum!
They will love them. I just threw them together as an experiment and took them to work and I got several compliments that people thought it was one of the best things they had eaten in a while. I love surprises like that!
These look amazing, as does your blog in general!
Please excuse me while I go hate my diet for a little while. 😉

These look incredible! Weighing out the big stuff and the small stuff always is better with chocolate!
Yum!! You have the best recipes. Thanks for sharing!!

They looked good when they came out, but were very egg-y. Maybe replace some of the egg with baking powder, or only use egg yolks?

Can these be frozen after baking without the ganache?
I haven’t tried it Jeanne, but I don’t see why not!
Thanks. I’ll let you know how I make out. This is my husband’s favorite dessert but I can’t be trusted with
all of them beckoning me from the fridge. 🙂

Could these be made the day before?
Yes, I think so. If you have the time, I would wait to put the ganache on until the day of.
I haven't tried it, but I don't see why not. Stored in an airtight container, and then thawed completely before adding the ganache.

Oh no! So glad to hear that they did turn out ok though!
Good tip on the papers. Yes, they are very dense and rich. Little bites of heaven!
