One of the hardest things to do after spending time in the kitchen preparing a great dinner is spending more time in the kitchen creating a fabulous dessert. This is why I love making something that takes little time to come together. Since I started using International Delight Coffee Creamer in foods, I have found that desserts are quicker and easier to make. And a whole lot better tasting, too.

Do you remember the Sweet Cream Banana Tartlets? We loved them so much, I couldn’t wait to come up with another recipe using the shortbread tarts.

The ingredient list is simple, the cooking preparation time is short, and the flavor is amazing! I love anything with salted caramel whether it is ice cream, candy, coffee creamer or chocolate. Salted caramel has been one of my favorite flavors to add to anything sweet. In this dessert, we are using both chocolate and salted caramel to create a delicious tart.

The tart has a chocolate pudding filling however, instead of milk we are using International Delight Fat Free Sugar Free Caramel Creme Creamer. This will give the pudding a rich, creamy taste with, of course a caramel-chocolate flavor. After it has set, we will drizzle it with a chocolate caramel and sea salt sauce and a sprinkling of sea salt.

  1. Just a question on the amount of creamer. I noticed on the Banana Tartlets, you used 1 small box of pudding and 1 c. creamer with 1 c. milk. In this recipe, you have 1 small box of pudding but only 1 c. of creamer. I wanted to double-check the amount needed in this recipe. I’m planning on making both recipes for a get-together and think they will be a hit! So cute! Thank you!!

    1. Hi Julie, either way is fine, you can add the milk or not. The second time I made these (the chocolate caramel) I wanted the flavor to be a bit more intense, so I left the milk out. With the Banana Tartlets, I wanted them to be a bit fluffier and creamier tasting like pie. Hope that helps.
      Happy Baking!

    I love the mini desserts.

  3. Re: Chocolate Salted Caramel Tarts:
    Should the pudding be made according to package directions and then add the creamers? I’m not trying to be dense, it’s just working out that way. Lol. I’m a VERY literal person.

    1. Hi Rachel, no you just mix the pudding (dry) with the creamer. The creamer replaces the milk.
      Happy Baking!
