20 g starch
30 g ground almonds
1 pinch of salt
70g powdered sugar
100 g cold butter
1 egg (size M)
A little fat for the shape

FOR THE CHOCOLATE COFFEE GANACHE

20 g glucose syrup
3 tsp instant espresso powder
150 g dark chocolate couverture
30g butter
120g mascarpone

FOR THE TOPPING

200g mascarpone
200 g cream
2 tsp vanilla extract
40g powdered sugar
2 tsp instant espresso powder
1 tsp hot water

ASIDE FROM THAT

2 tbsp cocoa for dusting
2 tbsp chocolate chips

PREPARATION
1st step
To make the dough, sift the flour and starch into a bowl.  Mix in the ground almonds and a pinch of salt and sift in the powdered sugar.  Cut the butter into small pieces, add it too and mix the ingredients with your hands.  Finally add the egg, knead everything into a smooth, compact dough and wrap in foil and refrigerate for about 30 minutes.

2nd step
Grease a corrugated tart pan (Ø 26 cm) and dust it with a little flour.  Preheat the oven to 200 degrees top/bottom heat.  Roll out the shortcrust pastry on a floured surface and place it in the tin, press the edge tightly and cut off the excess edges of the pastry.  Prick the dough several times with a fork and line it with baking paper.  Pour dried legumes onto the baking paper for blind baking.
