- . For one non-greased, removable 9-1/2 inch (24cm) bottom tart pan. Pre-heat the oven to 400F. Position the rack in the center of the oven.
- . > CRUST: In a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking powder and salt. Set aside. In a medium saucepan, melt the butter and milk on LOW-MEDIUM heat. Close the heat and immediately add all the flour mix. With a strong spatula, quickly combine it until the dough retracts from the sides and all traces of the flour disappear (about 15 seconds). Transfer dough onto a plate to cool for 30 min. Afterwards, flatten the dough and gently into the non-greased tart pan. Patiently spread with the palm of the hand until the edges start rising up. All the while, keep turning the pan as to evenly work the dough with fingers to fill the pan uniformly. Make sure there are no cracks. Pre-bake ('blind bake') crust: Place the tart onto a baking pan and 'Dock' the dough. Place a piece of parchment within the tart completely filled with 'pie weights'. BAKE at 400F for 10 minutes. Temporarily, take the baking pan out of the oven to carefully remove the paper with its pie weights. Lower the oven to 350F. Place the pan back into the oven and BAKE for another 15 minutes (10 min. if store-bought) or until lightly golden brown. Let it cool before adding the filling and garnish.
- . > ASSEMBLY - Decoration: In the baked tart, spread out the caramel. Position the first 36 pecan halves standing around the perimeter held by the caramel.
- Add the layers of crushed cookies, nuts and orange zest. Finish by a thick layer of the cooled (pourable) chocolate ganache. Decorate with the remaining 24 pecan halves laid flat touching the standing ones. The scissor snipped marshmallows placed as per photo.
- . Serve as soon as the ganache has hardened enough to slice. Keeps well at room temperature for 3 days.
