Click Photo Event - Crust: Tartelettes au Chocolat // Chocolate Tartlets

Arfi organized Books for Love, a fund raising for Indonesian cancer children, in which I took part as a bidder. I won the bidding for Passion Chocolat by Christelle Le Ru. Since the post system in Venezuela incredibly bad, I'd asked Arfi to send the book to my German address even though it means that I'll see her package whenever I'll come to Germany. But thanks to my mother in law, she sent the book to a friend of our friend who came to Caracas last July. YAY!

I was so thrilled when I saw the recipes inside the book. All sounds so chocoyummylicious. The first attempt was these mini chocolate tartelettes. I only changed the filling. Christelle used ground cinnamon, butter, dark chocolate, fresh cream and honey. I only used fresh cream and dark chocolate. This is also my contribution for Click Photo Event with this month's theme Crusts.
