TIPSY CHOCOLATE PECAN TART



Tipsy Chocolate Pecan Tart image

When you get a call that someone is "stopping" by and need a fast, easy recipe that looks like it took you days to make, this is it! I put it in a tart pan as it gives it a nice presentation too. And it's not sweet like regular pecan pie (nor as "jelly") and that's why this is my husbands favorite dessert!

Time 1h5m

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 pie crust, unbaked
1 c semi sweet chocolate chips or chunks
1 1/2 c pecans
3 large eggs
1 c sugar
1 c light corn syrup
1 tsp vanilla extract
pinch salt
2 Tbsp whiskey

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Put pie crust into pie pan or tart (I prefer the tart pan-nicer presentation) and crimp edges. Sprinkle chocolate onto crust and sprinkle pecans on top of choolate
  • 2. Whisk together eggs, sugar, corn syrup, vanilla, salt and whiskey and pour over nuts. Place this pie onto a rimmed cookie sheet before putting it in oven-it tends to "overflow" and is very hard to clean the oven after! Bake 20 minutes at 425 degrees, then reduce oven to 350 degrees and bake until pie is set but slightly "wobbly" in center, about 35 minutes more
  • 3. Let cool completely on wire rack

An old South African recipe; I remember my mom making this almost every weekend. It has a strong brandy flavor and is delicious served warm with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.

Steps:

  • Put 1/2 the dates, boiling water, sugar and marge into a large pan and bring to the boil for 3-4mins. Remove from the heat.
  • Mix the bi-carb with the tepid water and add to the date mix, it should froth up. Now sift the flour and baking powder into the mix and add the rest of the dates and the nuts. Gently blend in the egg. Continue blending until all the ingredients are well mixed together
  • Put mixture into a large square dish [ I use a 10" sqr dish 2 1/2" in depth and it's perfect ] and bake at 180C for about 40mins. Meanwhile make the syrup!
  • The Syrup!
  • Boil all the ingredients except the brandy for 2-3 mins
  • just before you take the Tart out of the oven.
  • When you take the tart out of the oven poke it with a knitting needle or such to make holes in the tart all over. Mix the brandy with the Syrup and immediately pour slowly over the tart letting the fluid settle into the holes and around the sides of the dish. Be careful not to splash over the sides [ Such a waste of good brandy!]
  • Leave to cool a little so the the syrup can dissolve into the tart and then serve with Ice Cream

TIPSY TART

This is a very South African dessert that can be served with custard or cream in winter and ice cream in summer. Its also called Brandy Tart. I made this recently when I invited my daughters in laws. Not even a crumb was left. Its high summer here now so I served it with cream - and rocky road ice cream for those who wanted a cold dessert! Brandy is the drink of choice for most South Africans and a favourite drink is Brandy & Coke!
