White chocolate and orange tart


This is one of my own recipes and it is simple but also one that you will never forget. I like it because it is a fresh dessert with the necessary sweetness and guilt.

White chocolate and orange tart
(serves 4)
120 g white chocolate
2 cups cream
2 oranges zest
5 ml orange essence
5 ml vanilla essence
½ cup sugar
10 ml gelatin


  • Half a pack tennis biscuits
  • Heat the cream with the orange zest, sugar, vanilla essence, orange essence and bring to a simmer.
  • Soak the gelatin in 10 ml water to make it soft and add it to the cream mixture.
  • Once the gelatin is added take the mix of the heat and add the chocolate and stir till it is all melted and mixed in to the mix well. Do not let the gelatin boil it won’t set.
  • Crush the tennis biscuits and put them in a thick layer on the bottom of the serving dish.
  • Now pour the mix over the biscuits and put in the fridge for 90 min to set. Once it is firm to the touch you can serve the tart.
  • Serve with whipped cream (not sweetened) to break a bit of the sweetness or if you like serve with sweetened whipped cream. You can even serve it with a bit of orange marmalade or just orange slices.
