Fiery Twist: Spicy Chocolate Caramel Tart Recipe

Unique Dessert Recipe: Spicy Chocolate Caramel Tart

Today, I’m excited to share a new dessert recipe that combines the rich flavors of chocolate and caramel with a surprising kick of spicy heat. This Spicy Chocolate Caramel Tart is perfect for those who love a little adventure in their sweet treats.

Ingredients:

• 200g dark chocolate (70% cocoa)
• 150g salted caramel sauce
• 100ml heavy cream
• 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
• 1/4 tsp chili flakes
• 1 store-bought pie crust

Kitchen Tools:

• mixing bowl
• saucepan
• whisk
• tart pan
• oven

I start by preheating the oven to 350°F (180°C). Then, I blind bake the store-bought pie crust in a tart pan for about 10 minutes until it’s golden brown and crisp.

In a saucepan, I heat the heavy cream until it just starts to simmer. Then, I add in the dark chocolate, stirring until it’s completely melted and smooth. Next, I mix in the salted caramel sauce, cayenne pepper, and chili flakes, giving it a gentle stir until everything is well combined and the mixture is silky.

I pour the spicy chocolate caramel filling into the pre-baked pie crust, spreading it evenly and smoothing out the top. I pop the tart into the oven and bake for about 15-20 minutes, just until the edges are set but the center still has a slight jiggle.

Once the tart is done baking, I let it cool completely at room temperature before transferring it to the refrigerator to chill for at least 2 hours, or until firm.

The Spicy Chocolate Caramel Tart weighs approximately 650g in total and serves 8. Each serving weighs around 81g and has an estimated calorie count of 300.

One unique tip to make this tart even more special is to sprinkle a pinch of sea salt over the top just before serving. The salty element really enhances the flavors and balances out the sweetness and spiciness.

I hope you give this Spicy Chocolate Caramel Tart a try and enjoy the fusion of flavors in each bite. Feel free to get creative with the spice levels or toppings to make it your own. Happy baking!
