Ingredients
· ½ cup plain flour, plus extra for dusting
· 2 tbsp cocoa powder
· 2 tbsp powdered sugar
· ⅓ cup cold butter, cut into cubes
For the filling
· 1 cup heavy whipping cream
· 1 ¼ cup 70% dark chocolate
· 1 ¼ cup light brown sugar
· A pinch of sea salt
For the nut brittle
· ⅓ cup mixed nuts, roughly chopped
· ½ cup granulated sugar
Recipe steps
Combine flour, cocoa powder and powdered sugar in a bowl of a food processor and mix. Add butter and pulse until you get a breadcrumb-like consistency.
Add 2–3 tbsp cold water and pulse again until mixture forms a ball. Cover and chill for 30 minutes. Roll out to ⅛-inch thickness on a lightly floured surface, then use the flattened dough to line a 9-inch pie tin. Trim edges and chill for another 30 minutes.
Use a divider to separate the oven into two zones. Heat the top to 350°F and the bottom zone to 285°F Convection. To retain shape of the pie crust, top with a piece of parchment paper and fill with dried rice. Bake in the top oven for 15 minutes, then remove the paper and rice. Plug any cracks using trimmings, then bake for another 5 to 10 minutes until the pie crust is cooked through and dry. Leave to cool.
Meanwhile, put the nuts onto a parchment-lined baking sheet and toast for 15 minutes in the bottom oven until golden. Leave to cool.
Put the sugar in a heavy pan and warm over medium heat for 3 to 4 minutes until it turns light brown. Don’t stir, just move the pan until you get an even color and all the sugar dissolves. Once melted and golden, pour the caramel over the toasted nuts on the lined tray. Move the tray to make a thin layer of caramel. Leave to cool and set.
Put all the filling ingredients in a heatproof bowl with a pinch of sea salt. Place over a small pan of simmering water. Melt, stirring occasionally, until smooth and glossy. Pour into the cooled pie crust and transfer to the fridge. Chill for at least 3 hours until firm and set.
Remove from the fridge 20 minutes before serving. When ready, snap the brittle into pieces and use them to decorate the tart.
Cut and serve.
