The Viral Dubai Knafeh Pistachio Chocolate Bar

The Viral Dubai Knafeh Pistachio Chocolate Bar

Some recipes earn a permanent place in the recipe box, and The Viral Dubai Knafeh Pistachio Chocolate Bar is the kind I happily return to. This is the sort of sweet I enjoy with coffee, good conversation, and no particular rush. This is another beautiful reminder of how welcoming a Middle Eastern table can be. I hope you enjoy both the making and the sharing of it.

Ingredients

  • 118 grams kataifi
  • 1 tbs. Unsalted butter
  • 1 tbsp. Tahini
  • 200 grams + 2 tbs. Pistachio cream
  • 10 ounce (283 g) semi sweet chocolate
  • 1 3/4 ounce (50 g) dark chocolate

Instructions

  1. Cut the kataifi into smaller pieces, melt 1 tablespoon of butter and toast the kataifi until golden add 1 tablespoon of tahini and stir then add the pistachio cream and stir on low heat until combined, set aside!
  2. In a microwave safe bowl melt the chocolate in 40 seconds increments and stir until completely melted or if you prefer you can use the double boiler method.
  3. Spread some of the chocolate in what ever molds you have and place in the fridge for an hour to harden then fill with the kataifi mixture, speed the rest of the chocolate evenly l. Leave in the fridge for 2-3 hours to set and enjoy.
