Number Of Ingredients 13

2 3/4 cups, chocolate cookie crumbs, pulsed
1 stick (4oz) butter, melted
1 1/2 teaspoon sugar
1 pinch salt
12.5 oz chopped caramel
1/2 cup cream
4 3/4 oz chopped chocolate
3.4 oz. cream
3 tbs. butter
1-2 oranges
2 cups water
1 cup sugar
1/4 cup kumquat jam

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350. Grease the base of a 9-inch spring form pie pan.
  • Mix all the crust ingredients together in a bowl and evenly press crumb mixture into the pan. Bake for 10 minutes. Take pan out of oven and, using the back of a spoon, press the crust back into place if need be. Bake for another 10 minutes. Let cool.
  • Set a double burner over medium heat and warm the cream
  • Stir in the chopped caramel.
  • Cook caramel, stirring until melted and uniform. Remove from heat. Pour the filling into the cooled pie crust and refrigerate until set, about 1 hour.
  • Once the filling is set, make the ganache by putting chopped chocolate and cream into a microwavable medium bowl. Microwave for 30 second intervals, stirring between intervals, until the chocolate is melted. Once melted, stir in butter.
  • Once melted and uniform, pour the hot ganache over the filling. Refrigerate for an additional hour, or until chocolate is set.
  • Slice oranges into thin rounds.
  • Make a simple syrup by cooking water together with sugar in a wide pot.
  • Once sugar dissolves, poach the oranges in batches, so as not to overcrowd the pot. Poach the oranges until translucent and set them aside to dry on a cake rack.
  • Mix the kumquat jam with enough poaching liquid to loosen it so it is easily brush-able. Brush oranges with the glaze and let dry on the rack.
  • Once dry, arrange the slices over the set ganache in a pretty pattern.
