How to Make Chocolate And Mixed Nut Tart

  1. **Make the Crust:** In a food processor, combine 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour and ½ cup granulated sugar. Pulse to combine.
  2. Cut in 1 cup (2 sticks) cold unsalted butter, using on/off pulses, until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  3. Add 2 tablespoons heavy cream and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Pulse until the dough just comes together, adding more cream by the tablespoon if needed.
  4. Gather the dough into a ball, flatten into a disk, wrap in plastic wrap, and chill for at least 30 minutes.
  5. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). On a lightly floured surface, roll out the chilled dough to a 12-inch circle.
  6. Carefully transfer the dough to an 11-inch tart pan with a removable bottom. Trim and crimp the edges.
  7. **Prepare the Filling:** Toast 1 cup of mixed nuts (pecans, walnuts, almonds, etc.) in a dry skillet over medium heat until fragrant. Let cool.
  8. In a food processor, coarsely chop the toasted nuts.
  9. In a large bowl, whisk together ¾ cup light corn syrup, ½ cup packed light brown sugar, and ½ cup (1 stick) melted unsalted butter.
  10. Whisk in 2 large eggs and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  11. Stir in 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips, then add the chopped nuts.
  12. Pour the filling into the prepared tart crust.
  13. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the center is set and the top is deep golden brown.
  14. Let the tart cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before removing the tart from the pan.
  15. Serve warm or at room temperature.
