Ingredients

 
Here is the list of ingredients you’ll need:
 
For the crust:
 
• 9 (5- by 2 1/4-inch) chocolate graham crackers (not chocolate-covered), finely ground (1 cup)
 
• 5 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
 
• 1/4 cup sugar
 
For the filling:
 
• 1 1/4 cups heavy cream
 
• 9 ounces bittersweet chocolate (not more than 65% cacao if marked), chopped
 
• 2 large eggs
 
• 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
 
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
 
For the glaze:
 
• 2 tablespoon heavy cream
 
• 1 3/4 ounces bittersweet chocolate, finely chopped
 
• 1 teaspoon light corn syrup
 
• 1 tablespoon warm water

Directions

Directions:

Making the crust:
• Preheat oven to 350°F with rack in middle.
• Stir together all ingredients and press evenly onto bottom and 3/4 inch up side of tart pan. Bake until firm, about 10 minutes. Cool on a rack 15 to 20 minutes.
Making the filling:
• Bring cream to a boil, then pour over chocolate in a bowl and let stand 5 minutes.
• Gently stir until smooth.
• Whisk together eggs, vanilla, and salt in another bowl, then stir into melted chocolate.
• Pour filling into cooled crust.
• Bake until filling is set about 3 inches from edge but center is still wobbly, 20 to 25 minutes. (Center will continue to set as tart cools.)
• Cool completely in pan on rack, about 1 hour.
Making the glaze:
• Bring cream to a boil and remove from heat. Stir in chocolate until smooth. Stir in corn syrup, then warm water.
• Pour glaze onto tart, then tilt and rotate tart so glaze coats top evenly. Let stand until glaze is set, about 1 hour.
Tart is best the day it is made. This tart can be made without the glaze one day ahead and chilled. Bring to room temperature just before glazing it.
