- 3 tablespoons pure maple syrup
- ¼ teaspoon sea salt
- 180 g (6.3 oz) vegan white chocolate

Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a mixing bowl, combine gluten-free all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, sea salt, and melted vegan butter. Mix until crumbly, then add maple syrup and combine until a dough forms.
- Press the dough into a tart pan evenly and bake for 10-12 minutes. Allow to cool.
- For the mint ganache, melt the vegan white chocolate in a bowl over simmering water. In a separate saucepan, heat coconut cream and mint leaves until fragrant. Remove from heat and steep for 10 minutes. Strain into the melted chocolate and mix until smooth.
- Pour the mint ganache into the cooled tart crust and refrigerate until set.
- For the chocolate ganache, repeat the melting process with dark chocolate and heat coconut cream. Add maple syrup and vanilla, then combine until smooth.
- Once the mint ganache is set, pour the chocolate ganache on top and refrigerate again until fully set.
- Before serving, drizzle melted vegan chocolate over the tart and garnish with fresh mint leaves.
Notes
For a butterless version, substitute vegan butter with a mixture of applesauce and a bit of coconut oil. Ensure your cocoa powder is unsweetened for the crust.
