Salted Caramel Chocolate Pie

 

Ingredients:

1 Oreo Cookie Crust

 

For the Caramel

1 cup brown sugar

1/2 Tablespoon butter

1/4 cup + 2 Tablespoons heavy cream

Pinch of Salt

 

For the Ganache

12 ounces Dark Chocolate chips

1 cup heavy cream

 

How to Make

In a skillet over medium high heat melt the butter and whisk in the brown sugar. Keep whisking until it starts to bubble. Whisk for one more minute.

Remove from heat and switch to a rubber spatula. Continue to stir constantly for a few minutes, scraping the sides and bottom of the pan well as you stir. The mixture will cool and thicken slightly. Pour into the pie crust and put in the freezer for 30 minutes.

 

Ganache may sound scary but it’s just chocolate and cream. It should come out fairly thick – you don’t want it like chocolate syrup. It should resemble the inside of a truffle.

Over medium-low heat in a medium saucepan, mix together the heavy cream and chocolate chips until melted and smooth. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.

Once the caramel is done in the freezer, spread the ganache over top.

Let chill for at least an hour before cutting and serving (the longer it chills, the easier it will be to cut and serve).  Sprinkle coarse Sea Salt on top. Keep refrigerated.
