6-ingredient Chocolate Ganache Salted Caramel Pie

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.

Put this in the fridge or freezer to cool fully, and move on to the ganache layer. Heat the whipping cream and pour it over the dark chocolate. Allow to sit for 5 minutes and then whisk until smooth in order to make ganache.
