Raspberry Chocolate Hazelnut Tart - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    2 cups hazelnuts (toasted and skins rubbed off)
    6 tablespoons brown sugar, packed
    1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
    1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
    3/4 cup whipping cream
    6 ounces bittersweet chocolate or 6 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped
    1 pint fresh raspberry
    1/4 cup seedless raspberry jam
Preparation
    Preheat the oven to 325\u00b0.
    In a food processor, finely grind the nuts, then add the sugar and cinnamon.
    Add the butter and process until moist clumps form.
    Press into a tart pan with a removable bottom.
    Bake until golden brown and firm to touch, 5-10 minutes (watch closely).
    Transfer to a rack and allow to cool completely.
    Bring the cream to a simmer in a heavy saucepan.
    Remove from the heat.
    Add the chocolate and stir until melted and smooth.
    Pour the mixture into the crust. Chill until set, about 1 hour.
    Arrange the raspberries on top.
    Stir the jam in a heavy small saucepan over low heat until melted.
    Brush the melted jam over the raspberries.
    Garnish with a little whipped cream, or shaved chocolate and a sprig of fresh mint if you would like.
