- 9 oz Graham crackers or honey crackers. I used Simple Mills gluten-free honey crackers.
- 3 tbsp Gingerbread spices
- 5 oz Butter melted
- 1 Egg
- pinch Salt
- 1 tbsp Molasses optional
Chocolate Ganache
- 12 oz Dark chocolate chips or chocolate
- 3/4 cup Coconut cream only the solid part (2 small cans)

Instructions
Gingerbread Tart
- Preheat the oven to 350 F.Place butter in a small pot and melt it on the lowest setting. Let it cool down.Put graham crackers in a food processor and pulse it until fine.Add salt and gingerbread spices and pulse it again.Add butter and egg and pulse until they form a sticky dough. If you want to use molasses, add 1 tbsp molasses at this point.Transfer it to a tart pan and spread it evenly.Use parchment paper, pie weights, or dried beans to blind-bake the crust. Bake until the edges are lightly golden for 15 minutes, then let it cool.Bake for 15 minutes.Remove it from the oven and let it cool.
Ganache Filling
- Place the chocolate chips or broken-up chocolate in a clean glass or metal bowl over a water bath. Warm the chocolate chips on the lowest setting, stirring occasionally ( do not boil the water. The water should barely simmer) until the chocolate has melted. Make sure the bowl doesn't touch the water.Once the chocolate has melted, gently incorporate the coconut cream (only the solid parts) with a whisk and add cashew milk (or almond milk) and salt. If the chocolate is not sweet enough, add some sweetener at this point.Cool it down and fill the tart case.Transfer the filled tart case to the fridge. Allow it to set for at least 8 hours.Serve at room temperature.
