Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Make the Cookie Crust
- Set your oven for 350°F (175°C). Using parchment paper, grease a tart pan with a detachable bottom or line.
- Cream the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar in a big mixing basin until light and fluffy.
- Till completely blended, beat in the egg and vanilla extract.
- In another bowl, whisk together the salt, baking soda, and flour. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture until a soft dough is formed.
- Stir in the chocolate chips, then push the dough evenly into the prepared tart pan. Form the crust by pressing it up the edges.
- Bake until the edges turn brown, 12 to 15 minutes. Let it cool while you work on the filling.
Step 2: Prepare the Caramel Filling
- Mix together in a saucepan the sweetened condensed milk, butter, brown sugar, and syrup.
- Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and turns golden caramel color—about 8 to 10 minutes.
- Spread the caramel filling evenly into the chilled cookie shell. Let it sit at room temperature for thirty minutes.
Step 3: Add the Chocolate Topping
- In a microwave-safe bowl heated in 30-second increments and stirred until smooth, melt the chocolate chips.
- Over the caramel layer, drizzle melted chocolate with a spoon or piping bag.
- For a salted caramel variation, sprinkle with flaky sea salt as desired.
Serving Suggestions
- Serve warm with a dollop of vanilla ice cream for a gooey, cozy dessert.
- For cleaner slices and a firmer texture, let the tart cool completely.
- For a decadent treat, pair with a cup of coffee or hot cocoa.
Storage Tips
- Refrigerate leftovers in an airtight container for up to five days.
- Freeze the tart for up to three months without the chocolate drizzle. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator; sprinkle with chocolate and serve.
