Chocolate Raspberry Pecan Tarts
One word to describe this chocolate raspberry tart would be decadent!The base is made with mainly pecan meal (crushed pecans) no rolling, just an easy press in crust. The filling is a raspberry puree and a silky smooth chocolate ganache, topped with a raspberry cream. The flavor combination is divine!

I was curious to know how you center yourself and clear your thoughts before writing.
I have had trouble clearing my mind in getting my ideas out.
I truly do enjoy writing however it just seems like the first
10 to 15 minutes are wasted just trying to figure out
how to begin. Any ideas or tips? Appreciate
