Chocolate & date caramel tart

You like chocolate? Do you like tarts? Do you like decadent desserts? Well, you should try this recipe! Remember the sweet potato brownie recipe with raisin caramel and chocolate on top http://gaspichealthyberry.com/sweet-potato-brownie/? Well, I fell in love with the combination of raisin caramel and dark chocolate, so I decided to make version 2.0, this time I add dates to it besides blond raisins, with oatmeal crust, my favorite, topped with dark chocolate and coconut ganache, It’s delicious, a bomb of flavor, perfect for those who love chocolate, tarts and decadent desserts.

The crust it is made with oatmeal, my favorite, super simple and you just need some ingredients, just like for date caramel and the ganache, is a super simple tart, easy, fast and delicious.
