Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F.
• Combine the graham cracker crumbs and the sugar. Slowly pour in the melted butter, then the egg whites, mixing to incorporate. Place approximately 3 ounces of the crust in each of 8 4-inch tart molds and press down with your fingertips until crust covers bottom and sides of molds. Bake for approximately 12 minutes just to set the shells. Remove from the oven and let cool.
• Bring the milk and cream to a boil in a heavy-sided saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the chocolate and stir until smooth. Let cool until room temperature and whisk in the egg. Pour enough chocolate cream in each shell to reach just under the top of the edge. Place back in the oven and bake approximately 10 minutes or until chocolate is just set. Remove from the oven and let cool.
• Combine half of the water, half of the corn syrup, and all of the sugar in a heavy-sided saucepan and heat over medium-high heat until it reaches 240°F (measure with a candy thermometer). Combine the rest of the water and the powdered gelatin and place in a double boiler over medium heat. Cook, stirring until the gelatin is completely dissolved.
• Combine the rest of the corn syrup and the vanilla extract in the bowl of a standing mixer with the whisk attachment. Turn to low speed and add the hot corn syrup mixture slowly until well combined. Turn the mixture up to medium high and whip for approximately one minute. Add the gelatin mixture and whip approximately 10 minutes or until the mixture becomes thick and foamy.
• Place approximately 3 tablespoons of the marshmallow mixture on top of tarts, leaving a half-inch border around the edge. Place back in the oven for 12 minutes or until the marshmallow is slightly hard to the touch. Be careful not to overcook, as the marshmallow will begin to break down and deteriorate.
• Remove and let cool. Serve on individual serving plates.

Steps:

• In a small pan over medium heat, warm the milk until it just begins to bubble around the edges. Turn off the heat and add 1 cup chocolate chips. Let sit for a few minutes to melt the chocolate, and then whisk to combine. Pour into the pie crust and put into the freezer until set, about 20 minutes.
• Preheat the broiler to high.
• In a large, clean glass or metal bowl, add the egg whites. Using an electric hand mixer, whisk the egg whites to get them frothy. With the mixer running, slowly beat in the sugar. Continue until they begin to form stiff peaks, 3 to 4 minutes. Beat in the vanilla and marshmallow cream. Spoon the mixture over the chocolate, making sure to cover all the way to the edges of the crust. Put on the middle rack of the oven and broil until the top is lightly browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Garnish with the remaining chocolate chips. Allow to cool for 10 minutes before slicing.

Steps:

• Heat over to 350. In small bowl, combine all crust ingredients and mix well. Press mixture into bottom and up sides of 9-inch tart pan with removable bottom or 9-inch pie pan. (if using tart pan, place on cookie sheet for easier handling). Bake 10 minutes and cool.
• Meanwhile, in medium saucepan, heat whipping cream until bubbles form around edge of pan. Remove from heat; add chocolate and stir until melted. Cook over low heat until all of chocolate is melted, stirring constantly. Cool to lukewarm (about 5 minutes).
• Place sliced strawberries in single layer in crust. Pour melted chocolate mixture over strawberries. Place marshmallow creme in microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on medium for 30 seconds or until softened. Stir just until smooth. Quickly drop marshmallow cream by spoonfuls over chocolate layer. With tip of knife, swirl marshmallow creme and chocolate to marble it. Arrange 8 strawberries even around edge of tart. Refrigerate at least 30 minutes before serving to set chocolate.
