Directions


  1. Make graham cracker crust:

    Preheat oven to 350°F. Stir together cracker crumbs, butter, brown sugar, and 1/2 teaspoon of the salt in a medium bowl until the texture of wet sand. (Mixture should clump together when squeezed in your hand; if it doesn’t, add more melted butter, 1 tablespoon at a time, until that consistency is reached. This will ensure a sliceable crust).

  2. Press crumb mixture into skillet:

    Using your fingers and the flat bottom of a dry measuring cup, press crumb mixture evenly in the bottom and 1 1/2 inches up the sides of a 10-inch cast-iron skillet.

    While crust cools, combine semisweet and bittersweet chocolate in a medium heat-proof bowl.

    Microwave cream in a microwave-safe measuring cup on HIGH until hot to the touch but not boiling, 2 to 2 1/2 minutes. Pour over chocolate, stir to incorporate, and let sit 2 minutes.
