Description

A delightful indulgent dessert featuring creamy caramel, crunchy nuts, and a luscious chocolate drizzle, perfect for impressing friends and family.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pre-made tart shell
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 1 cup chopped nuts (like pecans or almonds)
  • 1 cup chocolate chips
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Place the tart shell on a serving plate.
  2. In a saucepan, combine the sugar and water. Cook over medium heat until the mixture turns a golden brown caramel color, about 10 minutes. Watch closely to avoid burning.
  3. Remove from heat and slowly whisk in the heavy cream and butter until smooth, being cautious of bubbling.
  4. Stir in the chopped nuts and a pinch of salt until well combined.
  5. Pour the caramel mixture into the tart shell, ensuring it is evenly distributed.
  6. Melt chocolate chips and drizzle over the caramel filling.
  7. Allow to cool and set before slicing and serving; refrigerating will speed up the process.

Notes

Serve chilled or at room temperature, with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream for an extra treat. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
