This rich and divine Salted Caramel Chocolate Tart with chocolate base is a chocoholics dream dessert. Serve it in slivers...a little goes a long way!

I am a sucker for Salted Caramel anything...in fact one of my baking gurus and friend, Marnee of Sugar and Nice fame, has the most amazing salted caramel macarons that I would climb mountains to eat. This recipe comes a close second. No mountains involved. (Phew.) This recipe is just one of the amazing yummy recipes you can find in my second big book, Keeping it Simple, which if you don’t have yet, you should really invest in...NOW...don’t wait a moment longer. Start the new year off right! Enjoy.

Believe it or not, all salts are not born equal, nor have the same level of saltiness. Sounds illogical but trust me; try going back to 'table' salt after using pink salt flakes or Fleur de Sel...you just won't be able to.
