Salted caramel chocolate tarts

I decided to make these for a girls' night last weekend. They're mini chocolate tarts, filled with caramel and have a few grains of sea salt sprinkled on the ganache topping.

Just thinking about these turns me into Homer Simpson when he's dreaming of donuts.

Since there were going to just be a few of us, I made a half batch of the tart dough and ganache, but made a full batch of the caramel, figuring I could find some devious way to use it. I thought about making truffles, but they're fairly time consuming. So, I went the easy route, got some vanilla ice cream and have been enjoying caramel sundaes (with chocolate jimmies) for the past few days.

Hmmmmm.....
