Ingredients

  • 300g Plain Flour
  • 75g Butter
  • 100g Cream Cheese
  • 1 tbls Icing Sugar
  • 150g Butter
  • 200ml Maple Syrup
  • 250g Light Brown Soft Sugar
  • 100g Dark Brown Soft Sugar
  • 4 Eggs
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 400g Pecan Nuts
  • 200g Dark Chocolate Chips

Instructions

1
First, make the pastry.
2
Tip the items required into a food processor with 1 /4 tsp seasoning.
3
whiz until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs.
4
splash 2-3 tsp cold moisture into the funnel while the blade is running – the mixture should start to clump together.
5
Tip onto a work surface and bring together, kneading briefly into a ball.
6
Pat into a disc, wrap in cling film, and keep cold for at least 20 mins.
7
fiery up oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6.
8
Remove the pastry from the fridge and leave at room temperature for 5 mins to soften.
9
baking flour the work surface, then unwrap the pastry and roll to a circle the thickness of a £1 coin.
10
Use the pastry to line a deep, 23cm round fluted tin – mine was about 3cm deep.
11
Press the pastry into the corners and up the sides, making sure there are no gaps.
12
Leave 1cm pastry overhanging (save some of the pastry scraps for later).
13
Line with baking parchment (scrunch it up first to make it more pliable) and fill with baking beans.
14
Blind-oven-cook for 15-20 mins until the sides are set, then remove the parchment and beans and return to the oven for 5 mins until golden brown.
15
Trim the pastry so it’s flush with the top of the tin – a small serrated knife is best for this.
16
If there are any cracks, patch them up with the pastry scraps.
17
Meanwhile, weigh the dairy spread, syrup and sugars into a skillet, and introduce 1 /4 tsp seasoning.
18
fiery up until the dairy spread has melted and the sweetener dissolved, stirring until seamless.
19
Remove from the fiery up and cool for 10 mins.
20
Reduce oven to 160C/140C fan/gas 3.
21
Beat the eggs in a dish.
22
introduce the syrup mixture, vanilla and pecans, and combine until well combined.
23
empty half the mixture into the tart case, scatter over half the chocolate chips, then seal with the remaining filling and chocolate chips.
24
oven-cook on the middle shelf for 50-55 mins until set.
25
Remove from the oven and leave to cool, then keep cold for at least 2 hrs before serving.
