Rich, decadent, and extremely easy to make Nutella tart - Made with little if no effort at all and ready in just 30 minutes.
Who doesn't love Nutella? I'm pretty sure there are plenty of fans out there - and the famous pastry chef Pierre Hermé is one of those.
Did you know he created this Nutella tart recipe especially for his wife? You couldn't expect any less from one of the best pastry chefs in the world.
I've decided to give a nice twist to the original recipe and replace the store-bought version with my homemade Italian Chocolate Spread.
It takes 10 minutes to make and it's well worth the wait. Believe me when I say this is really GOOD STUFF.
Whether you're celebrating a special occasion, or just feel like baking, this heart-warming decadent chocolate tart will make your tastebuds rejoice!

Would this freeze well? I’m thinking of making this on Sunday and freezing it for Thanksgiving.
Oh this looks delicious. I love Nutella.
such a lush dessert - I could eat a huge slice right now 🙂
How much sugar do you fold in?
Oops, my bad! I forgot to add sugar amount, but it's correct now. You need to add 2 tbsp of sugar after adding the egg yolks. Hope you try this tart, it's my safe bet everytime I go to a party and bring it over, everyone loves it!
I AM not a fan of nutella.. Can I use the hershey's chocolate spread?
Of course you can ( and it’s actually better than store-bought Nutella. But the best thing you can do is make your own homemade nutella 🙂
Wow Andrea, this tart looks beautiful! I can imagine a slice of this would make anyone happy! 😀
Thank you Nadia 🙂 It's by far my favorite "chocolate" tart, I love the different textures you get. I used to make it with store-bough nutella, then I started making my own and the result is so much better ( and healthier!). Hope you try it out soon, if you do let me know how it is! 🙂
That is one absolutely gorgeous cake. Perfect!
