  White Chocolate tart with Strawberies Chocolate tart.... Yumyyyy! This buttery , and crunchy crust, topped with a smooth and creamy white chocolate filling  balanced by the tartness of the strawberies is simply divine. In this recipe I'm using a 6' tart pan. You may double the recipe for a bigger pan or instead of one big tart, you can make mini tarts as well.    I always used dark chocolate in my baked goods simply because my kids are a huge fan of dark chocolate. However, i wanted to try something differant. So I decided to make this tart with white chocolate instead. White chocolate is much sweeter than dark chocolate so I recommend using sour-ish fruits to compliment  the sweetness . I had some strawberries in the fridge and decided to use those, but you can use any fruit of your choice It turned out perfect and the strawberries really compliment the white chocolate. A perfect feast for the eyes and mouth! Happy baking. This is how I made it. For crust: : ...
