Method

1. 1

   Put the biscuits on a clean tea towel and hold the edges closed, then crush with a rolling pin until fine. Transfer the biscuit crumbs to a mixing bowl along with the zest from 1 orange and the cocoa powder. 

   
2. 2

   Add the margarine to a saucepan over a low to medium heat until melted, then pour the melted margarine into the bowl of crumbs and stir until fully combined. Transfer the biscuit base to a 23cm (9”) loose-bottomed tart tin and use your fingers to spread it out evenly across the base and up the sides.

   
3. 3

   Put a couple of centimetres (1”) or so of water into a saucepan over a low heat. Place a metal or glass mixing bowl on top, making sure the bottom of the bowl doesn’t touch the water. Roughly break up the chocolate straight into the bowl and stir occasionally until fully melted.

   
4. 4

   Remove the bowl from the saucepan. Add the coconut milk and maple syrup, then add the sea salt, crushing the flakes between your fingertips as you sprinkle them in. Squeeze the juice from the oranges until you have 125ml (½ cup) and add it to the bowl, then stir until fully combined. 

   
5. 5

   Pour the chocolate mixture into the tart tin and gently shake the tin to remove any air bubbles. Pop the tart into the fridge for a minimum of 2 hours, or until the chocolate has set.

   
6. 6

   To finish, decorate with a sprinkling of sea salt.
