To make this delicious dessert, you will need the following ingredients:
For the crust:
- 2 cups gingersnap cookies, crushed
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
For the filling:
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup water
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- 8 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped
- 2 large eggs, beaten
To make the crust, preheat your oven to 350°F. In a medium bowl, mix together the crushed gingersnap cookies and melted butter until well combined. Press the mixture into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch tart pan. Bake for 10 minutes, then remove from the oven and let cool.
To make the filling, heat the heavy cream in a small saucepan over medium heat until it begins to simmer. In a separate saucepan, combine the sugar and water and cook over medium heat until the sugar dissolves and the mixture turns a deep amber color. Remove from heat and whisk in the butter and sea salt until well combined. Slowly pour the hot cream into the caramel mixture, whisking constantly. Add the chopped chocolate and stir until melted and smooth. Add the beaten eggs and whisk until well combined.
Pour the filling into the cooled crust and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the filling is set. Let cool to room temperature, then chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours before serving.
