You guys.

You NEED this pie in your life. 6-ingredient Chocolate Ganache Salted Caramel Pie.

It’s so easy to make, and it’s really, really, REALLY rich and sinfully good. A small piece is enough, and I don’t say that very often when it comes to chocolate — and caramel.

The first step is making the crust, which is crushed oreos and butter.

The next step is cooking the caramel. Be sure the crust is cooled well so that it doesn’t melt when you add the caramel layer.

We have decided the caramel is truly what MAKES this recipe. We made a similar recipe that used melted caramels (that you buy in a bag at the store) and it was a pale comparison to the real deal that this makes.

After adding chocolate layer, put in fridge or freezer to set a final time. Add course salt just before serving.

    Looks so tasty and easy to make. Desserts are my weakness and I’m sure I would love this since it’s chocolatey goodness.

    Seeing as Oreos are the first ingredient in this pie, I’m going to have to say it’s a winner. I can’t wait to give this recipe a try.

      The Oreos take it over the top! It’s soo good. The caramel layer is my personal favorite. It’s really creamy and nothing like store-bought caramel.
