"A lovely fluffy, chocolate-y, delicious recipe. Honestly, my whole family loved it. And I plan on serving it at a formal dinner party with my Grandparents tomorrow. I used an already made pastry case and just made the filling, which was easy enough and can be made ahead of the occasion as it sets quickly. A few of the stages had me scratching my head as I don't often do tarts or cook recipes such as this. As I couldn't find the glucose liquid I substituted it with golden syrup which worked just as well as my finished tart looks some what like the picture above. Also when melting the chocolate and syrup together I had no idea what it was supposed to look like and so nearly burned it. When the two blend together and start making a dough type mixture is when I took it off of the heat. This could just be because I'm unused to this type of dessert, yet the tart itself is very good. In all a great recipe, very easy and useful for that last minute preparation. Happy eating. :)"
