Salty Caramel Delight

Please excuse the tease as you work away at your computer with no chance of sinking your teeth in this delightful treat, but I just had to add this to our archive to remind and inspire myself to tackle the last course from time to time. Make this salty stunner, with a a honey-sweetened pretzel crust, brown butter filling, topped with a thick layer of melted chocolate and cream.

And don’t forget the finishing touch, flaky salt.
