TWD Coffee Ice Cream Tart
This tart sounds amazing.
And I'm hoping to try again this summer - coffee, chocolate, and almond is a favorite combination.
This go around, things just didn't seem to be working for me. I don't have a tart pan, so I figured I'd just sub a pie pan, but I couldn't find it. So I figured a muffin tin would be fine. As I was putting the sugar cannister back on the shelf, it slipped and fell on the bottle of vanilla and the glass butter dish, which then shattered. I had the food processor open with the crust dough at this point, so then I was imagining shards of glass in my crust. I figured I'd bake them off anyway just for show, and just threw the muffin tin in the freezer. Then the three year old opened the freezer to sneak a popsicle, and the muffin tin fell out along with a glad plastic container of some soup that then shattered plastic onto the muffin crusts. Amazingly, the crusts stayed in the tin (and none of the stuff hit the kid on the head). I still baked them off, added the chocolate here and a little praline frozen yogurt.
I'm definitely going to have to try this one again, because it sounds like something we'd love.
Thanks to Jessica of Domestic Deep Thought of the Day for this week's pick!

Despite your troubles, your mini tart looks great! You should definitely try it again though -- maybe this summer when it's hot and ice cream sounds more exciting -- I absolutely loved it! Thanks for baking with me!
Some days are just not good for cooking!!
It does look tasty.
Wow, I would have given up if I had all those things happen to me. I idn't make the tart this week, but I think I will give this a try once the weather gets warmer.
Ugh ugh ugh! I didn't even try it, so you still win. Nice!
