Fig & Mushroom Chocolate Tart

Preparing for the date, you might be scrambling for a dessert that says “I love you” without screaming “I bought this at the grocery store at the last minute.” If so, you’ve come to the right place.
I’ve got the perfect sweet treat for you: a Fig and Mushroom Chocolate Tart. It’s rich, chocolatey, and laced with an unexpected but totally genius addition (*whispers*: mushroom powder) for that deep, earthy complexity. AND, it’s got fresh figs on top to add a naturally sweet, jammy finish that practically flirts with your taste buds. (If you’ve never paired figs with chocolate, prepare to have your mind blown.)
Oh, and did I mention it’s gluten-free and made with almond flour? So if your date avoids gluten, they’ll love you forever for this one! If they don’t, well, they’ll still love you because it’s that good.
Let’s get into it.
