Ingredients

• 200 grams graham crackers
• 100 grams unsalted butter, melted
• 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
• 225 grams cream cheese, softened
• 180 grams smooth peanut butter
• 100 grams powdered sugar
• 240 milliliters heavy cream
• 200 grams dark chocolate, chopped
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 pinch salt

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 175°C (350°F).

Step 2

Place the graham crackers in a food processor and pulse until finely ground. Transfer to a bowl.

Step 3

Add the melted butter and granulated sugar to the graham cracker crumbs and mix until the texture resembles wet sand.

Step 4

Press the mixture evenly into the bottom and sides of a tart pan with a removable base (approximately 9 inches in diameter).

Step 5

Bake for 8-10 minutes, then let the crust cool completely.

Step 6

In a large bowl, beat together the cream cheese, peanut butter, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.

Step 7

Spread the peanut butter mixture evenly over the cooled tart crust and chill in the refrigerator while you prepare the chocolate topping.

Step 8

Heat the heavy cream in a small saucepan over medium heat until it begins to simmer (do not let it boil).

Step 9

Remove the saucepan from the heat and add the chopped dark chocolate. Let sit for 2 minutes, then stir until completely melted and smooth.

Step 10

Pour the chocolate ganache over the peanut butter layer, spreading it evenly to cover.

Step 11

Sprinkle a pinch of salt over the ganache for added flavor, if desired.

Step 12

Refrigerate the tart for at least 2 hours or until the chocolate is set.

Step 13

Remove from the tart pan, slice, and serve.
