Look at that fudginess! Check out that crust! oh.my.god.

And the sea salt?? Well, salted chocolate is pretty much the best thing ever.

These tarts are so easy to make! The shortbread crust is fool-proof and you don’t need to bake the filling! Just pour it inside the pre-baked crusts and refrigerate until set.

I have a ton of these mini tart pans, but if you have an 8-inch tart pan, you can use that instead.

Also, you can make these ahead of time! They are perfect for Valentine’s Day, which is next week. You can whip these mini tarts up let’s say on Sunday night and let them hang out in the fridge until Wednesday. Your Valentine will love them!
