Ingredients
200g Carnation Caramel
210g pack Extra Special All-Butter Pastry Case
200g bar Asda Dark Chocolate, finely chopped
100ml double cream
210g pack Asda Cocoa Dusted Almonds, ⅓ halved, the rest whole
Method
1Pour the caramel into the pastry case and smooth out. Chill in the fridge to set for at least 30 mins.
2For the ganache, put the chopped chocolate into a medium nonmetallic bowl. Bring the cream to a gentle simmer in a small pan on a medium heat – don’t allow it to boil over.
3Take the cream off the heat and slowly pour it over the chocolate. Swirl it around to melt and gradually mix together; stir gently if necessary.
4Set aside the ganache for about 10 mins, to allow it to cool and thicken. Pour it evenly over the caramel and spread it out to the edges of the pastry.
5Chill the tart in the fridge for 10 mins or until the ganache is slightly set.
6To decorate, gently push the cocoa-dusted almonds into the ganache. Dot the halved
almonds evenly between the whole ones, with the cut sides up. Slice the tart to serve.
