Coconut Chocolate Caramel Tart
Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup unsalted butter, cold and cut into small pieces
- 1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons water
- 1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a food processor, combine 1 1/2 cups of flour, 1/2 cup of shredded coconut, 1/2 cup of powdered sugar, and 1/4 teaspoon of salt. Pulse to mix.
- Add the cold butter pieces and pulse until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Press the mixture into a 9-inch tart pan with a removable bottom, making sure to press it evenly into the bottom and up the sides of the pan.
- Bake the crust for 15-18 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove from the oven and let it cool completely.
- In a small saucepan, combine 1/2 cup of chocolate chips and 1/2 cup of heavy cream. Heat over low heat, stirring constantly, until the chocolate is melted and the mixture is smooth. Pour the chocolate ganache into the cooled tart crust and spread it evenly. Place the tart in the refrigerator to set the chocolate ganache.
- In another saucepan, combine 1/2 cup of granulated sugar and 2 tablespoons of water. Cook over medium heat, swirling the pan occasionally, until the sugar caramelizes and turns a deep amber color. Remove from heat and carefully whisk in 1/2 cup of sweetened condensed milk and 1/4 teaspoon of vanilla extract until smooth.
- Pour the caramel over the set chocolate ganache in the tart crust, spreading it evenly. Return the tart to the refrigerator and chill for at least 2 hours, or until the caramel is set.
- Once the tart is set, remove it from the tart pan, slice, and serve. Enjoy!
