  • 450g (1lb) - Good Quality Dark Chocolate, Finely Chopped
  • 400ml (13.5 Fl Oz) - Thickened Cream
  • 1 ½ Tbsp - Caster Sugar
  • 100g (3.5oz) - Unsalted Butter, Cubed

Instructions

Oreo Base

  • In a food processor, blend the Oreo cookies, dark chocolate and salt together until completely broken down and resembling breadcrumbs.
  • Add the Oreo mixture to a bowl and add the melted butter. Stir to combine. The mixture should have the consistency of wet sand.Firmly press the Oreo mixture into the tart tin using a glass or metal spoon (or your fingers). Chill the base in the fridge or freezer for at least 10 minutes, while you prepare the chocolate ganache.

Salted Chocolate Ganache 

  • Very finely chop the dark chocolate into very small pieces (large chunks won't melt into the mixture as easily). Place the chopped chocolate into a large, heat-safe bowl.
  • In a saucepan, heat the cream, caster sugar, butter and vanilla over low heat, until steaming hot (but not boiling). Stir occasionally.
  • Carefully pour the hot cream over the chocolate and allow to sit for 1-2 minutes without stirring.
  • After 2 minutes, whisk or stir the mixture until the chocolate has melted and the mixture is smooth and glossy.
  • Pour the chocolate filling into the biscuit base and sprinkle with some salt flakes, to taste. Chill in the refrigerator for around 2 hours, until set.
  • Keep chilled until ready to serve. Slice and decorate with a dusting of cocoa powder (optional), fresh berries and double cream. Dig in.
