Instructions
For the Kettle Chip Crust

  2. In a food processor, pulse the potato chips until they are finely ground. Add the melted butter and flour and pulse for 30 seconds to combine. 
  3. Press the potato chip crust into the bottom and sides of a 9-inch tart pan. 
  4. Transfer to the pre-heated oven and bake for 12 minutes. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool.

  2. Pour the Chocolate Filling mixture into the cooled tart shell and place it back into the oven and bake for 22-25 minutes. Remove it from the oven and let cool for 30 minutes.
For the Chocolate Ganache topping
  1. Heat the cream in a small saucepan and add the chocolate. Whisk together over medium heat until the mixture is smooth and all the chocolate has melted. 
  2. Pour this mixture over the middle of the chocolate tart and use an offset spatula to spread it around evenly. 
  3. Let the entire tart chill overnight in the refrigerator. 
  4. Dust with flaky sea salt before slicing and serving.
