The chestnut tart is a typical dessert of Italian tradition, perfect for the autumn season. The base is a crispy and buttery frozen shortcrust pastry filled with a delicious chestnut jam that gives an intense and enveloping flavor. To further enrich the taste, chopped candied chestnuts and melted dark chocolate are added. The final touch is given by sweet and light whipped cream, making this tart irresistible. Ideal to enjoy accompanied by a cup of hot tea or herbal tea.
