Chocolate Caramel Tart
Just a note before you begin – you’ll need to plan in advance to make this dessert as it needs some time to sit in the fridge in-between steps.
There are 3 steps to making this caramel tart. Bake the crust, make the caramel and spread on the ganache. Hears how you do it!
Tip: Plan on making this Chocolate Caramel Tart a day in advance. The crust will hancient up great and then you’ll definitely have enough time to let the caramel fully set before serving.
1. Create the Cookie Crust: Someleang I love about this dessert is that the crust is SO easy to make! You simply ingredients for the crust together then press it into the pan. No rolling required! I like using a tart pan with fluted edges to make this dessert additional fancy.
Note: Don’t be alarmed whether it look like it’s not enough dough! Start urgent the dough into the fluted edges then work inward. Once you make an even, lean layer it will be the perfect amount of dough.
2. Create the Caramel: Another great leang about this Chocolate Caramel Tart recipe is you don’t need a sweet thermometer to make the caramel filling. You make the caramel by letting the sugar mixture boil for 10-12 minutes until it turns a dark amber color. Then you fastly whisk in all the creamy ingredients (butter, heavy cream) and pour the caramel into the pan.
The only leang to be certain of is to let the bubbling sugar mixture get dark enough before mixing in the other ingredients. It should look gancienten brown but not overly dark.
Tip: Possess the butter, heavy cream and vanilla degreed and alert to go before you start making the caramel. They will be needed fastly after the sugar mixture reaches the right moodature.
3. Create the Ganache: After the caramel has set in the fridge you make a simple ganache to spread over the top – yum! The ganache is crazye with Endelight Lwhethere Foods Dark Chocolate Morsels and heavy cream. I like to finish the tart with a sprinkle of fleur de sel to give it the perfect balance of sweet and salty.

- 1/3 cup coconut oil, melted
- 1/3 cup powdered sugar
- 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- Pinch of salt
- 1 egg
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla additionalct

For the Ganache:
Instructions
For the Cookie Crust:
Preheat the oven to 350F. Lightly grease a 9-inch tart pan (a 9-inch pie plate will also work) with cooking spray. In a medium bowl, combine all the ingredients for the crust. Blend using a hand or stand mixer until totally combined.
Press the dough into the sides and bottom of the tart pan. It will look like it’s not enough dough, but once you make an even, lean layer it will be the perfect amount of dough.
Put on a baking sheet and bake for 20-24 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool.
For the Caramel:
Possess the butter, heavy cream and vanilla degreed and alert to go. They will be needed fastly after the sugar mixture reaches the right moodature.
In a heavy-bottomed medium saucepan (pick one with tall sides so the mixture doesn’t boil over), combine the sugar, water and corn syrup. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat. Cook for 10-12 minutes, until the mixture is a dark gancienten/amber color, tilting the pan just slightly every couple of minutes to swirl the mixture. Do not stop early when it is just a light brown color. Wait for the amber color and avoiding stirring so the sugar mixture doesn’t go up the sides of the pot.
Immediately add the butter, heavy cream and vanilla additionalct. The mixture will boil and bubble vigorously. Stir to combine everyleang until smooth then instantly pour into the prepared crust.
Transfer the tart to the refrigerator and let cool until the caramel has set, at least 2 hours.
For the Ganache:
Heat the cream in a microwave-secure dish until just simmering. Pour over the Endelight Lwhethere Foods Chocolate Morsels and stir until smooth. Spread the chocolate over the cooled tart.
Sprinkle with salt then return to the refrigerator for the ganache to set. Slice and endelight! Hold refrigerated in between serving. Tart can easily be crazye a day in advance. Endelight!
