Decadent Hawaiian Chocolate Macadamia Nut Tart

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Decadent Hawaiian Chocolate Macadamia Nut Tart.

1. Step 1

   Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). This is the perfect temperature to bring out the flavors of your ingredients.

2. Step 2

   Next, toast the macadamia nut pieces and coconut flakes separately in the oven until they turn a beautiful golden brown, which should take about 8 minutes. Keep an eye on them to prevent burning, then let them cool.

3. Step 3

   While those are cooling, take one of the pie crusts and press it into the bottom of a 12 to 14-inch fluted tart pan. For the second crust, cut it into strips and use them to line the edges of the tart pan, making sure to seal the crust completely. This will create a lovely border for your tart.

4. Step 4

   Now, gently press the semi-sweet chocolate chips into the bottom of the pie crust. This layer will melt beautifully and add a rich chocolate flavor to your tart.

5. Step 5

   In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the slightly beaten eggs, vanilla extract, and light corn syrup until the mixture is smooth and well combined. Then, stir in the white sugar, melted margarine or butter, toasted macadamia nuts, and coconut flakes. This mixture is where all the magic happens!

6. Step 6

   Pour this luscious filling over the chocolate chips in the pie crust, spreading it evenly.

7. Step 7

   Bake your tart in the preheated oven for about 50 to 55 minutes. You’ll know it’s done when a knife inserted halfway between the center and the edge comes out clean. The aroma will be irresistible!

8. Step 8

   Once baked, allow the tart to cool completely on a wire rack. This cooling time is essential for the filling to set perfectly.
