- 1 recipe Pastry for Single-Crust Pie (see recipe below)
- 3 eggs
- 1 cup light-colored corn syrup
- 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
- 1/3 cup butter, melted and cooled
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 cup coarsely chopped salted mixed nuts
- 1/2 cup miniature semisweet chocolate pieces
- 1/3 cup miniature semisweet chocolate pieces (optional)
- 1 tablespoon shortening (optional)
1. Prepare and roll out Pastry for Single-Crust Pie. Line an 11-inch tart pan with a removable bottom with pastry. Press pastry into fluted sides of tart pan and trim edges. Do not prick pastry.
2. For filling, in a large bowl beat eggs slightly with a fork. Stir in corn syrup. Add brown sugar, melted butter, and vanilla, stirring until sugar is dissolved. Stir in nuts and the 12 cup chocolate pieces. Place pastry-lined tart pan on a baking sheet; place baking sheet on the oven rack. Carefully pour filling into tart pan. Bake pie in a 350 degrees oven about 40 minutes or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean; cool on a wire rack.
3. To serve, cut tart into slices; transfer to dessert plates. If desired, in a small heavy saucepan melt the 13 cup chocolate pieces and shortening over very low heat. Immediately remove from heat; stir until smooth. Cool slightly. Drizzle over tart slices (see tip, page 247). Cover and chill remaining tart for up to 2 days.
- 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/3 cup shortening
- 4 - 5 tablespoons cold water
1. Stir together flour and salt. Using a pastry blender cut in shortening until pieces are pea-size. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of the water over part of the mixture; gently toss with a fork. Push moistened dough to side of the bowl. Repeat moistening dough, using 1 tablespoon of the water at a time, until all the dough is moistened. Form dough into a ball. On a lightly floured surface, use your hands to slightly flatten dough. Roll dough from center to edge into a circle about 12 inches in diameter.
