Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a medium bowl, combine almond flour, cocoa powder, and erythritol. Mix well.
Add the melted butter, egg yolk, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Stir until a dough forms.
Press the dough evenly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch tart pan with a removable bottom. Ensure the crust is uniform.
Bake the crust for 10-12 minutes, until set. Remove from oven and let cool completely.
To make the filling, heat the heavy cream in a saucepan over medium heat until it just begins to simmer. Do not let it boil.
Remove the cream from heat and add the chopped dark chocolate. Let it sit for 2 minutes to soften, then stir until smooth.
Stir in the 2 tablespoons of butter, stevia drops, and sea salt until fully combined and glossy.
Pour the chocolate ganache into the cooled tart crust, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Refrigerate the tart for at least 2 hours or until the ganache is firm.
Before serving, top with fresh raspberries and mint leaves if desired.
Slice the tart into 8 servings and enjoy.
