Pint Sized Baker: Mini Chocolate Tarts

Mini Chocolate Tarts

What to do with all of your left over Halloween chocolate candy??
Make mini chocolate tarts, of course! 
These were super easy for the kids to help with. My daughter had some friends over and they were practicing for Trick-or-Treating while waiting for the delicious treats to melt. 


Here's what you'll need.
1 box of mini-fillo shells (15 to a box) find them in the freezer section
mini candies - Rolos, Kisses, mini Peanut butter cups, chopped up Butterfingers,
Snickers, Milky Way, etc.
Garnish- Whipped cream, Cool Whip, marshmallows, nuts, more chocolate... just go nuts!
SPRINKLES!!!


Preheat the oven to 350 deg F.
You can place the frozen shells on a foil lined cookie sheet, or place them in a mini cupcake pan like we did.
Unwrap the candy and place them in the shells.
Bake for 5 minutes.
Using the back of a spoon, press down on the melted candy and flatten out the chocolate.
If you want to melt marshmallows on top, place the pan back in to the oven to soften the marshmallows or put them under a gas broiler to "roast" them.
Let cool for 5 minutes, so as not to burn your tongue and eat all warm and gooey.
Or let cool to room temperature to add whip cream.

Add toppings and decorate!


The girls (and adults) LOVED these mini tarts!
They were pop in your mouth good!
Easy and fast to make!
Uses up that Halloween candy, that you KNOW will be sitting there taunting you until Christmas!




You know you want some!
Enjoy!

  5. This is such a great idea and, better still, is the fact your "leftovers" look delicious. This is my first visit to your blog, so I took some time to browse through your earlier posts. I'm so glad I did that. You've created a great spot for your readers to visit and I really enjoyed the time I spent here. I'll definitely be back. I hope you have a great day. Blessings...Mary

  7. These are the kind of leftovers I would love to have! Your photos are gorgeous too. I am definitely going to have to save that last photo in my pinterest file to remember to make these. They don't even have to be leftovers, because what I would really want would be Rolos and nobody is going to have any of those left!
