3 tbsp icing sugar
1 egg yolk
3/4 cup + 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
3 DOVE Dark Chocolate & Sea Salt Caramel Promises, finely chopped

Caramel:
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 tsp corn syrup
2 tbsp heavy cream

Ganache:
8 DOVE Dark Chocolate & Sea Salt Caramel Promises
3 tbsp heavy cream
1 tbsp butter

Instructions:

1. Tart Shells: Using electric mixer, beat together butter and icing sugar until blended and smooth; beat in egg yolk. Mix in flour just until combined. Mix in chopped Promises. Refrigerate for 25 to 30 minutes or until chilled.
2. Preheat oven to 350ºF. Grease 12 mini muffin cups. Using rolling pin, roll out dough into 1/8-inch thickness. Using 3-inch round cookie cutter, cut out 12 rounds; press lightly into mini muffin cups to come about 1/4 inch above top of each cup. Refrigerate for 15 minutes. Prick tart shells all over with fork. Refrigerate for 15 minutes. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes or until pastry is lightly golden and crisp. Let cool completely.
3. Caramel: Meanwhile, in small skillet set over medium heat, cook sugar, corn syrup and 1 tbsp water for 8 to 10 minutes or until mixture is golden brown and sugar is dissolved. Stir in cream, butter and salt; cook for 3 to 5 minutes or until thickened and syrupy. Spoon into tart shells, about three-quarters full.
4. Ganache: Finely chop Promises. In microwave-safe bowl, combine Promises, cream and butter. Microwave, stirring every 30 seconds, for 60 to 90 seconds or until smooth and melted. Spoon evenly over caramel to cover. Refrigerate for 25 to 30 minutes or until layers are chilled and set.
5. Garnish: Just before serving, cut Promises in half. Garnish each tart with half of a Promise, and pinch of salt. 

Tip: Serve with a dollop of whipped cream and berries if desired.
