raw dark chocolate peppermint tart {copycat Hail Merry tarts)

the day i wandered into the desserts case in whole foods and saw the Hail Merry Tarts, i melted a little.  raw dessert that’s so thick and gooey and cold and all deep, dark, rich, deliciousness – all clean ingredients and made just for me to indulge, maybe one. bite. at. a. time. over a couple days?  and, yes.

BUT.  it’s a little pricey.  (with good reason – it’s full of real food, as so little is these days.  did i mention that?)  still, i of course thought, what if i could create this myself and share with my family?  one bite at a time, of course.  because, yum.  did i mention the deep, dark, rich part?

    *Digital Hug* these look AMAZING. When I was in a costco in Capitola I saw a raw key lime tarte that I’ve been wanted to recreate but haven’t had the time. These seem even more amazing! I absolutely love dark chocolate and mint and cannot wait to try these out!
