How to make this Chocolate Hazelnut Praline Pie

To create this delectable Chocolate Hazelnut Praline Pie, start by greasing an 8-inch (20cm) pie or tart pan with butter.

Next, prepare the crust by processing the toasted hazelnuts in a food processor until finely ground. Add in Oreo cookies and continue processing until crumbs form. Incorporate melted butter and a pinch of salt, and process until the mixture is evenly moistened. Press the mixture into the pan using the back of a spoon and your fingers where needed, then refrigerate while you move on to the filling.

For the hazelnut praline, arrange the toasted hazelnuts on a parchment paper-lined baking tray. Heat sugar and water in a small saucepan over medium-high heat until it turns golden brown. Pour this caramel over the toasted hazelnuts and let it cool completely. Break the praline into smaller pieces, then grind it in a food processor until it forms a thick paste, about 10 minutes. This will yield approximately ⅔ cup (160g) of hazelnut praline.

For the chocolate hazelnut praline filling, place chocolate and cream in a heatproof bowl over a pan of simmering water. Melt them together over low heat, then remove from heat and add vanilla extract and a touch of salt. Mix until combined, then add the hazelnut praline and mix again. Pour this luscious filling over the prepared crust.

Refrigerate the pie for 4-6 hours to allow it to set. When ready to serve, decorate it with toasted hazelnuts and a sprinkle of flaky sea salt.
