Challenge: Conquer Chocolate Crust...

Dear Pickle:

This is your fault - because those butter tarts WERE fun and got me into pastry mode. And I'm seriously jonesing to pull out that rolling pin again... So, the new challenge is:

Chocolate Pastry, in a pie or tart of your choice. I've never made it, but it sounds divine - and how could it fail to make so many pies and tarts that much better?

Martha has a recipe for chocolate pate sucree here.

I think I'm going to try Cindy Mushet's from her beautiful new 'Art and Soul of Baking'. Cindy warns that you have to be very careful not to burn it as you can't use the usual golden brown indicator to tell you when it's done...

Enjoy!
