We were skeptical when they presented us with a Questified Chocolate Orange Tart to try. Over the years we’ve gobbled up the snacks, pounded the deserts, even housed the occasional hors d’oeuvre. But a tart? “A tart, you say?” was our reaction. Highly suspicious, we assure you. But then we found out that a Quest Double Chocolate Protein Bar is featured in this out-of-left-field offering. We tried it and we loved it. Now we’re tart people.

Ingredients
CHOCOLATE ORANGE TART
CRUST
- 2 cups almond flour
- 1 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 tbsp zero calorie sweetener
- Pinch sea salt
- 6 tbsp butter, cold
Filling
Method
- In a bowl, sift together the almond flour and cocoa powder.
- Add in the sweetener and salt. Use a cheese grater to grate the cold butter into the dry mixture.
- Use your hands to mix until small crumbles form.
- Place the bowl into the refrigerator for 20 minutes. Remove the bowl and place the crumbles into a food processor and pulse until fine crumbles form.
- Press the crumbles into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch tart pan and bake for 10-15 minutes at 350 F.
- Make the filling by placing the heavy cream (reserving 2 tablespoons), butter and zest into a heavy bottom pot over medium heat. Bring the mixture to a boil.
- Meanwhile, chop the chocolate bars into small pieces and place them in a heat proof bowl. Pour the boiling cream mixture over the chocolate and let it sit for 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, cut the Quest bar into small pieces and place them into a microwave safe bowl with the reserved 2 tablespoons of heavy cream. Melt the bar in 20 second increments, stirring between each until smooth and then add to the chocolate mixture whisking until smooth and combined.
- Pour the mixture into the tart and let sit at room temperature for 20 minutes before placing into the refrigerator to chill until set, about 1 hour. Top with orange slices, cut into 18 slices and serve.
