Directions
  1. Preheat oven to 450°.
  2. Cut 4 (4 ½") circles from each crust.
  3. Carefully press crusts into the bottom and up the side of 8 (4") ramekins; prick the bottom of each crust several times with a fork.
  4. Arrange ramekins on a rimmed baking sheet; bake in preheated oven until lightly browned (5-6 min.).
  5. Remove from oven; cool crusts in ramekins on a wire rack.
  6. In a small saucepan, bring cream barely to a boil over low heat.
  7. Place chocolate chips in a medium mixing bowl; pour hot cream over chips, stirring until chips are melted and completely combined.
  8. Divide chocolate mixture among ramekins; refrigerate, covered, for at least 1 hr. (up to 24 hrs.).
  9. Bring to room temperature before serving; top tartlets with raspberries and fresh mint.

 

Variation: For Chocolate Salted Caramel Tartlets, omit the raspberries and mint leaves; drizzle finished tartlets with melted caramel and sprinkle lightly with sea salt.
