Milk Chocolate, Caramel, and Peanut Tart from La Popotte de Manue

Ingredients:

  • 250g flour
  • 100g soft butter, diced
  • 1 pinch of salt
  • 100g icing sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 200g salted butter caramel cream
  • 200g milk chocolate
  • 120g whipping cream
  • 80g peanuts

Combine flour, butter, salt, and icing sugar in a large bowl. Rub with fingertips until sandy, then mix in eggs. Form into a ball, wrap in film, flatten slightly, and chill for 30 minutes.

Line a rectangular tart pan with the dough. Prick with a fork, cover with parchment and weights (ceramic balls, rice, or dried pasta) for blind baking. Bake at 180°C for 20 minutes, remove weights, and bake 5 more minutes.

Cool, then spread caramel over the base and scatter peanuts. Chop chocolate into a bowl. Heat cream to a boil and pour over chocolate; whisk into a silky ganache. Pour over caramel layer.

Chill until set. For even faster prep, grab store-bought shortcrust; elevate it with homemade caramel or melted candies. This tart evokes your favorite chocolate bar—pure bliss!
