Chocolate-Nut Candy Bar Tartlets

  1. Preheat oven to 350F.
  2. On a lightly floured surface, roll out dough 1/8 inch thick.
  3. Cut dough into 6 rectangles, 5 1/2 by 4 inches each.
  4. Fit dough into four 4 1/2-by-2 1/2-inch tart pans with removable bottoms, pressing into bottoms and up sides.
  5. Pierce bottoms of shells all over with a fork.
  6. Refrigerate or freeze until firm, about 30 minutes.
  7. Place shells on a rimmed baking sheet; bake until dry, 15 to 18 minutes.
  8. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  9. In a small saucepan, bring sugar, corn syrup, and water to a boil; wash down sides of pan with a pastry brush dipped in water to prevent crystals from forming.
  10. Reduce heat to low; cook, swirling pan to color evenly, until caramel is a rich amber color.
  11. Remove from heat; carefully add 1/4 cup cream (it will spatter), butter, creme fraiche, vanilla, and salt.
  12. Stir until smooth.
  13. Let cool slightly, 1 to 2 minutes; stir in nuts.
  14. Melt 5 ounces chocolate in a heatproof bowl set over (not in) a pan of simmering water (alternatively, you can melt in a microwave oven).
  15. Pour 1 1/2 tablespoons melted chocolate into each crust; with an offset spatula, spread to coat evenly.
  16. Refrigerate until set, about 10 minutes.
  17. Pour caramel mixture into each shell, dividing evenly.
  18. Bring 1/4 cup cream to a boil in a small saucepan.
  19. Pour over remaining 1 1/2 ounces chocolate in a heatproof bowl; whisk until smooth.
  20. Cool until slightly thickened, about 10 minutes.
  21. Pour about 1 tablespoon over caramel in 3 shells; smooth with an offset spatula.
  22. Store tartlets at room temperature, in an airtight container, up to 1 day.
