This chilli chocolate cream tart is my absolute favorite showstopper dessert that honestly takes just an hour from start to table. The combination of rich dark chocolate with that subtle kick of heat sounds fancy, but I promise it's surprisingly simple to pull together. I love using almond flour in the crust because it adds such a wonderful texture while being packed with protein and healthy fats that keep you satisfied. The whole thing comes together in under twenty minutes of prep, which means you can impress your friends without spending all day in the kitchen.
