Walnut Chocolate Cake Tart

We all experiment and try various things with baking. Baking was always an art and Tart was found with one such experiment by two unmarried sisters in France. They were inspired by Pie which came 200 years ago before Tart. Now the question is what is the difference between Pie and Crust. While the Pie has a crust and the filling, tart has only a bottom crust with shallow sides. Over the years there have been so many varieties of tarts made across the world and its pretty impossible to choose a favorite one.

Coming to our Walnut Chocolate Cake Tart, I had to think for a while on how to modify the existing walnut chocolate cake. But, with Hamilton Beach Mixer, everything came together very well. First things first, in baking the most important part is mixing and the texture. That is taken care of by Hamilton Beach Mixer. Absolutely top quality mixer which is easy to use and the ingredients are mixed and smoothed so well. Loved this mixer so much. Every few years, your mixer has to be changed. If it is that year for you, I would strongly suggest you to go ahead with Hamilton Beach Mixer. I bet you would love it.
