Ingredients
Tart Crust:
- 1½ cups all-purpose flour
- ½ cup powdered sugar
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
- 1 large egg yolk
- 1 tablespoon cold water
Salted Caramel Filling:
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature
- ½ cup heavy cream
- ½ teaspoon sea salt
Additional:
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- Flaky sea salt, for topping
Instructions
- Prepare Tart Crust: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). In a food processor, combine flour, powdered sugar, and salt. Add cold butter and pulse until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add egg yolk and cold water; pulse until the dough just comes together. Press the dough into a 9-inch tart pan; bake for 18 to 20 minutes. Let cool.
- Make Salted Caramel: Heat granulated sugar in a saucepan until melted. Whisk in butter, then add heavy cream slowly. Let bubble for 1–2 minutes, remove from heat, stir in sea salt. Pour into tart crust; refrigerate.
- Chocolate Layer: Melt chocolate chips; pour over set caramel. Chill tart; sprinkle with flaky sea salt before serving.
Notes
- Use high-quality chocolate for best flavor.
- The tart can be made a day ahead and stored in the fridge. Bring to room temperature before serving for a softer texture.
