Ingredients:
2 cup: Flour,
6 ounce: Very cold unsalted butter --,
1/2: -inch cubes,
1/4 tsp: Salt,
1/2 tsp: Sugar,
1/3 cup: Cold water,
12 ounce: Cream cheese,
4 ounce: Heavy whipping cream --,
Whipped to soft peak,
1/2 cup: Powdered sugar,
1/2 tsp: Vanilla extract,
1: Very ripe papaya, peeled --

1/2 cup: Macadamia nuts, toasted
8 ounce: Bitter chocolate,
8 ounce: Semisweet chocolate,
2 1/2 cup: Heavy cream,
4 tbsp: Warm water,

Directions:
STEP ONE: Prepare the Tart Shell-- Sift together the flour, salt, and
sugar. Coat butter cubes with the flour mixture and water and knead
until malleable, but not homogeneous. (The amount of water given is
approximate; adjust the amount used according to the doughs
consistency.) Leave bits of plain butter, otherwise the dough becomes
too elastic. Gently roll dough to 1/4-inch thickness and lay onto a
tart pan. Trim edges and poke bottom of pastry with a fork. Bake in
oven at 350 degrees F for about ten minutes or until tart shell
browns slightly. Chill.

STEP TWO: Prepare Cream Cheese Filling-- Whip whipping cream until it
forms soft peaks. In a mixer, beat cream cheese until it becomes
fluffy. Fold in whipped cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract.
Set aside.

STEP THREE: Assemble Tart-- Fill tart shell with cream cheese mixture.
Arrange papaya slices in a pinwheel design over the top of the cream
cheese. Place macadamia nuts in center of tart. With a pastry brush,
coat top of tart with peach glaze. Refrigerate for 1/2 hour before
serving.

STEP FOUR: Prepare Chocolate Sauce-- Heat bitter chocolate, semisweet
chocolate, heavy cream, and warm water in a saucepan, stirring
frequently, until sauce is a smooth consistency.

STEP FIVE: To Serve-- Slice tart into 8 pieces. Drizzle chocolate
sauce onto plate and place one piece of tart on each plate.
