1 Tart
- Serves:
- 12
ingredients
- 1 1⁄4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1⁄4 cup granulated sugar
- 1⁄4 teaspoon salt
- 1⁄2 cup cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
- 3 -4 tablespoons heavy cream
- 1 egg yolk
- 2 cups toasted walnuts, coarsely chopped
- 1⁄2 cup dark chocolate chips
- 3⁄4 cup packed light brown sugar
- 1⁄4 cup dark corn syrup
- 1⁄4 cup unsalted butter
- 3 tablespoons coffee liqueur
directions
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- To prepare the crust, pulse the flour, sugar and salt in a food processor until combined. Add the butter and pulse until coarse crumbs form.
- Whisk together the heavy cream and egg yolk in a small bowl. Slowly pour the heavy cream mixture into the feed tube and pulse until the dough begins to come together; form into a disk.
- With lightly floured hands, press the dough evenly onto the bottom and up the sides of an 11-inch tart pan with a removable bottom, making sure to press the dough up to the rim.
- Bake until lightly browned, about 12 minutes. Transfer to a rack. Sprinkle the walnuts and chocolate chips evenly onto the bottom of the crust.
- Meanwhile, to prepare the filling, combine the brown sugar, corn syrup, butter and cream in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil and cook, stirring constantly, until the sugar is completely dissolved, about 1 minute.
- Remove from the heat and stir in the coffee liqueur. Pour over the walnuts. Bake until the mixture is bubbly around the edges, about 15 minutes.
- Cool on a rack. Serve warm or at room temperature.
- Tip: If the pie crust puffs up while baking, gently prick it in several places with a fork.
