Chocolate Caramel Tart

Ingredients for Sweet Dough:
2 Cups All Purpose Flour
1/2 Cup Powdered Sugar
2 Each Whole Eggs (slightly beaten)
1 Cup Butter

Ingredients for Chocolate Tart Filling:
1/2 Cup Chocolate Bar (chopped)
1/2 Cup Heavy Cream

Ingredients for Caramel Cream:
1/2 Cup Sugar
1/2 Cup Heavy Cream
1 Cup Whipped Cream

Method of Preparation for Sweet Dough:
With an electric mixer, cream the butter and powdered sugar. Slowly add the eggs in three stages, scraping the bowl between each stage. Store the dough in the refrigerator for at least an hour before using. Line a tart ring with the sweet dough and bake in a 350° oven for approximately 10 minutes until the dough is golden brown.

Method of Preparation for Chocolate Tart Filling:
Heat the cream up to a boil and pour it over the chopped chocolate. Mix with a rubber spatula until all the chocolate is melted and combined. Pour the mix into the baked tart shell up to the top. Lit it cool down and set completely before garnishing.

Method of Preparation for Caramel Cream:
In a hot pan, cook the sugar until it melts and reaches a light amber color. Slowly add the heavy cream to the caramel stirring constantly. Any lumps of caramel can be boiled out of this mix. Cool down the caramel mix and then fold in the whipped cream. Spoon the caramel cream in to the top of the tart as a garnish.

Presentation:
Place the garnished tart in the center of a serving plate. Decorate the plate with chocolate, caramel and chopped nuts of your choice. Serve.
