Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together 1 ¾ cups of all-purpose flour, ½ cup of unsweetened cocoa powder, ¼ cup of granulated sugar, and ½ teaspoon of kosher salt until well combined. Cut in ½ cup of cold unsalted butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Form the dough into a ball, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the rolled-out dough into tart pans, pressing it gently into the sides and bottoms. Prick the bottoms with a fork to prevent air bubbles. Bake for 10-12 minutes.
- In a large bowl, beat together 8 ounces of cold cream cheese and 1 cup of smooth peanut butter until smooth. Gradually add 1 ½ cups of confectioners' sugar and mix until fully combined. Fold in ½ cup of mini chocolate chips.
- Spoon the peanut butter filling into each cooled tart shell, leveling the surface with a spatula. Cover and refrigerate for about 2 hours.
- Once set, top each tart with white frosting and sprinkle with white sanding sugar.

Notes
Ensure your butter and cream cheese are very cold for optimal texture. Keep any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week.
