METHOD

Cacao Sablée

Cream the butter together with the sugar. Add the other powders previously
sifted together and continue with the eggs. Mix until you have a uniform
dough, do not over-beat. Laminate the dough until it reaches  a t hickness  of
3 mm,  line the 8 cm tart rings and cook at 160°C for 12-15 minutes.

Flourless sponge cake

Make a French meringue with the egg whites and the sugar, aside whip the
egg yolks (sabayón texture) and fold the two preparations together until fully
incorporated. Follow the same technique with the sifted cacao powder. Place
in a half tin with wax paper and cook at 19 °C for 12-15 minutes. Cool and cut
the sponge into 5 cm. circles that fit inside the tartalets. 

Raisin compote

Heat the pulp together with the raisins and when it reaches 40°C add the
previously mixed sugar and pectin, cook until boiling point. Cool and place in
mini sphere moulds. 

Peanut praliné

Make a dry caramel with the sugar and process it with the nuts until you get a
fine paste. Melt the Cacao Mass and mix it with 200 gr of the previous paste
(save the rest for later). Fill a medium demi-sphere with praliné, place the
raisin compote in the center and freeze. 

República dominicana 100% cremeux

Make an Cream Englaise with the first 4 ingredients: Heat the cream and milk,
separately, lightly beat the egg yolks and sugar. Add half of the hot mix into
the egg yolks, then incorporate this mix into the heated cream and milk. Mix
and cook at 85°C. Add the previously hydrated gelatin (with 5 times its weight
in water) until dissolved. Pour it over the Cacao Mass and make a ganache.
Perfect the emulsion with an immersion blender. Fill a large sphere mould
with the cremeux and place the medium demi-sphere of praline and compote
inside it. Freeze.

Neutral glaze
Heat the neutral nappage and water until it boils. Immediately place it in the
compressor gun and apply.

Assembly

Cover the bottom of the tart with peanut paste, place the flourless sponge
cake and cover it with peanut paste. Separately, unmould the Cremeux demi-
spheres and spray them with the Neutral Napagge glaze. Place the sprayed
demi-sphere on top of the sponge cake, inside the tart and cover the edges
with cookie crumble or Cacao Nibs. To decorate, fill a paper piping bag with
tempered Ecuador 56% Cacao Fluid Dark Chocolate and pipe over chopped
Cacao Nibs, cover with more Cacao Nibs and let it crystallize. Place on the
sphere.
