Salted Chocolate and Caramel Tart

As threatened, I'm back with that second dessert recipe.

You guys, this was INTENSE.  

In a good way.

I'm not a huge sweets person in general, but I do like a bite or two of something every now and again.

The crust of this is Oreos and butter.

The caramel is a super easy butter and brown sugar mix, that you make on the stove in five minutes.

The top is dark chocolate chips, my favorite, mixed with hot heavy whipping cream until melted.

Oh dear lord.

INSANE.

I used coarse sea salt for the top, and went easy for the sake of other people's taste buds, but it could have used more.

It was so rich that the salt helped take the edge off.

I made this one the day before the dinner party and it kept just fine covered with a cake dome in the fridge.

Once the chocolate sets up, you could cover it with plastic wrap without any concern of messing up the presentation.

I also used my springform pan, so I could remove the sides, but I don't imagine it would suck made in a regular pie plate.

 This was seriously a chocolate lover's dream.

The crust was delicious.

And here are some more photos, in an attempt to convince you to whip one up.

I promise it's beyond delicious.

Yeah, that didn't suck.
