Toffee-Coffee Tartlets

  1. Make the filling: Bring the cream and coffee nearly to a boil in a saucepan over medium heat.
  2. Reduce the heat to low; cook for 5 minutes.
  3. Remove from the heat.
  4. Strain through a fine-mesh strainer into a bowl.
  5. Set aside.
  6. Bring the caramel topping to a boil in a saucepan over medium-high heat.
  7. Reduce the heat to medium and cook for 2 more minutes.
  8. Remove from the heat and stir in the butter.
  9. Slowly whisk in the cream-coffee mixture until combined.
  10. Pour into a large bowl and cool to room temperature.
  11. Refrigerate for 45 minutes, or until completely chilled.
  12. Make the cups: Place the pastry shells on an ungreased baking sheet and bake according to the package directions.
  13. Transfer to a rack to cool, then pull out the center of the shells with your fingers.
  14. Place the chocolate chips in a small microwave-safe bowl and microwave on medium power, stirring every 30 seconds, until melted, about 1 1/2 minutes.
  15. Pour the toffee bits into a pie plate.
  16. Dip the rims of the pastry shells in melted chocolate and then in the toffee.
  17. Set aside.
  18. Beat the coffee mixture with a mixer on medium speed until thickened.
  19. Slowly beat in the confectioners' sugar on high until stiff peaks form.
  20. Assemble the cups right before serving or selling: Spoon the coffee mixture into a large zip-top plastic bag.
  21. Press out the air and seal.
  22. Snip off a corner; pipe the mixture into the shells.
  23. Drizzle with more caramel.
