How to Make Chocolate Caramel Pecan Tartlet Filling

  1. In a medium saucepan, combine 1/2 cup water and 1 cup granulated sugar over medium heat. Cook, without stirring, until the sugar turns a deep amber color (about 8-10 minutes).
  2. Carefully remove the saucepan from the heat. Slowly whisk in 1/2 cup heavy cream. *Caution: The mixture will bubble vigorously.*
  3. Return the saucepan to medium heat and stir in 4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter. Bring to a gentle boil, stirring constantly.
  4. Remove from heat and immediately whisk in 6 ounces (170g) of finely chopped high-quality dark chocolate.
  5. Let the mixture stand for 2-3 minutes to allow the chocolate to melt completely.
  6. Whisk the mixture until smooth and glossy. Stir in 1 tablespoon of dark rum (optional).
  7. Let the filling cool to room temperature (about 30 minutes).
  8. Gently fold in 1/2 cup pecan halves.
