Ingredients
- 113g / ½ Cup Butter
- 60g / ½ Cup Icing Sugar
- 2 Egg Yolks
- 185g / 1½ Cups Flour
- 60g / ½ Cup Cocoa Powder
- 450g / 2¼ Cups Sugar
- 190ml / ¾ Cup Glucose Syrup (Corn Syrup)
- 60ml / ¼ Water
- 85g / ⅓ Cup Butter
- 375ml / 1½ Cups Cream
- 5ml / 1 Teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- 100g / 3.5oz Dark Chocolate
- 80ml / ⅓ Cup Cream
- Flaky Sea Salt
Instructions
- Place the butter and icing sugar into a mixing bowl. Mix together until everything is well combined.
- Separate two eggs, placing both egg yolks into the mixing bowl. Mix together again.
- Sieve in the dry ingredients, the flour and cocoa and mix everything together. It should be crumbly in texture but when pressed should clump together.
- Pour into a tart pan press with a spoon until the base and sides are evenly coated. Prick all over with a fork and place into a 180C or 350F oven for 15 minutes. Cool on a wire rack.
- Place the sugar, glucose syrup, and water into a medium sized pot. Heat over medium hight heat for 10-20 minutes until the sugar has turned a light amber colour. Don't stir the sugar as this creates sugar crystals up the sides of the pot.
- Place in the butter, heavy cream, and vanilla extract. The caramel will bubble up but just wait for it to calm down and stir.
- Continue cooking for 10-15 minutes until the caramel has darkened in colour and become thicker.
- Cool for a few minutes until the bubbles dissipate and pour into the cooled tart base. Transfer to the fridge and leave to set for at least 2 hours.
- When the caramel is set heat the cream over medium heat until it starts to simmer, do not let it boil.
- Pour over the chopped chocolate and leave to melt for a few minutes. Stir together until the ganache is completely smooth and pour over the caramel.
- Leave to set for an hour and sprinkle over the flaky sea salt.
- Cut into slices and enjoy!

Could agave nectar be used in place of corn due to an allergy?
