No-Bake Vegan Mini Tarts, Gluten Free Tarts

This recipe for No-Bake Vegan Mini Tarts is inspired by Indian Chikki which is a delicious hard candy made of roasted nuts and jaggery.

But this recipe is simpler than chikki as it requires no cooking or baking, no close monitoring of jaggery syrup to get perfect consistency. This is a very forgiving recipe. Plus I have tried to make a healthy filling using Avocado. If Avocado is not easily available in your region, then feel free to replace it with ripe banana or sweet potato.

You may check the wonderful health aspects of an avocado here. Since Avocados do not have a strong taste or smell, it is easy to incorporate them into desserts. If you want to replace Avocado, you may use ripe Banana or boiled sweet potatoes. Banana will have a distinct flavor but when it is combined with dark cocoa, the strong flavor mellows down.
