3/4 Stick cold unsalted butter;
-cut into bits (6
; tablespoons)
2 tb Cold vegetable shortening
1/4 ts Salt
3 1/2 oz Bittersweet chocolate;
-chopped
3/4 c Firmly packed brown sugar
3/4 c Light corn syrup
2 tb Unsalted butter; cut into
-bits
4 lg Eggs
1 ts Vanilla
1 2/3 c Pecan halves
Banana rum ice cream as an
-accompaniment
Roll out the dough 1/8 inch thick on a lightly floured surface, fit into a
10-inch tart pan with a removable fluted rim, and trim the edge, leaving a
1/2-inch overhang. Fold the overhang inward onto the side of the shell,
pressing it firmly, and chill the shell for 30 minutes. Spread the
chocolate, melted, on the bottom of the shell and chill the shell for 15
minutes.
In a heavy saucepan combine the brown sugar and the syrup, bring the
mixture to a boil, stirring, and simmer it for 5 minutes. Let the mixture
cool until it is no longer bubbling, add the butter, and stir the mixture
until the butter is melted. In a bowl whisk together the eggs, the vanilla,
and a pinch of salt and add the syrup mixture in a slow stream, whisking.
Add the pecans to the shell, pour in the egg mixture, and if necessary tap
down the pecans to coat them with the egg mixture. Bake the tart in the
middle of a preheated 350F. oven for 40 to 45 minutes, or until the crust
is pale golden, let it cool, and serve it warm with the banana rum ice
cream.
To make the pate brisee:
In a large bowl blend the flour, the butter, the vegetable shortening, and
the salt until the mixture resembles meal. Add 2 tablespoons ice water,
toss the mixture until the water is incorporated, adding more ice water if
necessary to form a dough, and form the dough into a ball. Dust the dough
with flour and chill it, wrapped in wax paper, for 1 hour.
