It is already known that at Don Zabor we love recipes that bring us nostalgia; of those flavors that remind us of the meals or desserts that our grandmothers, our moms and dads made. This recipe is no slouch.

It is so versatile that it goes perfect in winter with a hot chocolate or in summer with vanilla ice cream on top. However you prefer it, it is the ideal cake to pamper yourself or to impress friends and family with how delicious it is.

Note that this is not a pie; it's a tart and it should be thin, with a crunchy base and deliciously chewy filling, in the best possible way. Chocolaty, honey flavored, comforting. The perfect dessert.

Ingredients

  • 1⁄2 cup brown sugar
  • 1⁄2 teaspoon vanilla
  • 3 cups of previously chopped walnuts, hazelnuts and peanuts (approximately 750gr)

Preparation

  1. Preheat the oven to 175o C. Pre-bake the tart base for 10-15 minutes or until lightly golden.

  4. Once it's golden brown, remove the tart crust from the oven and allow to cool slightly.

  5. Melt the chocolate in a bain-marie and spread the bottom of the base with a thin layer of melted chocolate. Reserve a part to decorate.

  6. Pour the walnut mixture into the base of the tart and bake for 20 minutes at 175oC.

  7. Let cool completely. Decorate with the remaining chocolate and voila. To enjoy!
