Directions
1.
In medium-size bowl, combine chocolate chips and oil. Microwave on high 1 minute. Stir until smooth; stir in coffee granules--coffee does not have to dissolve completely. Spoon 1 tablespoon melted chocolate mixture into each tart shell, rotating shell so that chocolate coats bottom and sides. Use a spoon to help spread, if necessary.
2.
Place yogurt in large bowl; stir to blend. Fold whipped topping into yogurt until no white streaks remain. Spoon mixture into a pastry bag fitted with a large star tip and evenly pipe mixture into each tart. Or spoon a generous 1/2 cup mixture into each tart shell. Evenly sprinkle tops with chopped coffee beans. Refrigerate 2 hours.
