Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams graham crackers (crushed)
- 120 grams unsalted butter (melted)
- 200 grams dark chocolate chips
- 240 milliliters heavy cream
- 150 grams soft caramels
- 0.5 teaspoons sea salt
- 100 grams whipped cream (optional)
- 20 grams chocolate shavings (for garnish, optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
In a medium bowl, combine the crushed graham crackers and melted butter. Mix until the texture resembles wet sand.
Press the graham cracker mixture into the bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie dish to form an even crust.
Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until lightly golden. Remove from the oven and allow it to cool completely.
In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the caramels and 120 milliliters of heavy cream. Stir constantly until the caramels are fully melted and the mixture is smooth.
Pour the caramel mixture into the cooled crust, spreading it out evenly. Sprinkle with sea salt. Place the pie dish in the refrigerator to chill for 30 minutes, or until the caramel is set.
In a heatproof bowl, place the dark chocolate chips. Heat the remaining heavy cream (120 milliliters) in a small saucepan until it just begins to simmer. Pour the hot cream over the chocolate chips and let sit for 1-2 minutes.
Whisk the chocolate and cream together until smooth, creating a chocolate ganache.
Pour the ganache over the chilled caramel layer, spreading it out evenly to cover. Chill the pie in the refrigerator for 2 hours, or until the ganache is fully set.
Before serving, optionally top the pie with whipped cream and garnish with chocolate shavings.
