Walnut Tart with Chocolate Drizzles

Recipe courtesy Emeril Lagasse, 2001


In a deep saucepan, combine the butter, honey, sugar, and brown sugar. Bring to a boil and cook for 3 minutes.
Remove from the heat and stir in the walnuts and cream. Add the vanilla and stir. Pour into the prepared tart
shell and spread evenly. Bake until set, about 15 to 20 minutes.

Remove from the oven and cool for 30 minutes. Drizzle Chocolate Sauce decoratively over the tart and let sit
for 15 minutes. Serve as desired.

Ingredients

Tart Dough:
1 1/2 cups plus 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
4 ounces (1 stick) cold butter, cut into 1/4-inch pieces
2 tablespoons solid vegetable shortening
3 tablespoons ice water

Directions

Sift the flour, sugar, and salt into a large mixing bowl.
Using a pastry blender or your fingers, work in the butter pieces and shortening until the dough begins to
come together and form small pea shapes. Work in the ice water with your fingers until it just comes together,
being careful not to over mix. Form the crust into a disk shape, wrap tightly in plastic wrap, and place in
the refrigerator to rest for at least 30 minutes before rolling out to fit into a pie pan.

Yield: 10-inch tart dough
