  1. Roll pastry out to a 3mm thickness. Cut out rounds and line mini muffin pans. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  2. Mix the butter, egg, brown sugar, vanilla and chocolate together and mix well, allow to cool until just warm.
  3. Preheat oven to 180ºC. Spoon chocolate filling into each muffin pan, filling to three-quarters full. Top each pie with a walnut half, pressing gently into chocolate.
  4. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes until pastry is golden and chocolate slightly cracked.
  5. Serve warm or at room temperature.

    Very easy, rich and delicious. Can be served elegantly as a desert with a dolop of cream or with coffee.

    Great result, and so quick. One comment, the second step might confuse some. Maybe change ingredients list to read 'melted butter' and 'melted chocolate.'
