caramel tart

Golden custard dessert

A caramel tart is a pastry with a shortcrust or sweet pastry base filled with caramel—sugar cooked until it browns and develops a rich, buttery flavor.

Variations include salted caramel tarts and those topped with chocolate, nuts, or fruit.

The caramel tart was almost too sweet, but I finished it anyway.
