Ingredients

200g white chocolate

100g heavy cream

200g all purpose flour

100g butter

250g blueberries

1 egg

1 tbsp. dark cocoa powder

100g sugar

zest of 1 lemon

dried legumes for blind baking

some icing sugar

Method

Mix flour, cocoa powder and sugar in a large bowl. Add egg and butter in pieces and quickly work into a smooth dough with your hands - add 1-2 tbsp. cold water if the dough is too dry. Cover and place in the fridge for at least 30 minutes.

Chop chocolate finely. Bring heavy cream to a boil, add in lemon zest and pour over chopped chocolate. Now stir until smooth and the chocolate dissolved completely. Set aside and allow to cool off a little. Place chocolate in the fridge for at least 30 mintes. Wash blueberries and set aside.

Heat oven to 180°C. Roll out dough on a flour dusted surface and carefully transfer to a greased tarte tin. Press down gently with your fingers. Prick the crust evenly with a fork to avoid dough losing shape. Place parchment paper on top of the crust and fill with dried legumes. Bake in preheated oven for about 30 minutes. Remove tarte crust from oven, set aside and allow to cool off completely. Then remove parchment paper and legumes.

Whisk cooled chocolate with a handheld electric mixer. Carefully fold in half of the blueberries. Fill chocolate cream into the crust and smooth down. Spread remaining blueberries on top and dust with icing sugar.
