Dubai Chocolate Bar

Ingredients

• 1½ cup milk chocolate (melted)
• 2 tbsps tahini
• 1½ cup pistachio cream (see post for homemade version)
• 2 cups shredded Kataifi dough (chopped)
• ¼ stick butter (unsalted)
• 1 tsp coconut oil
• ¼ cup white chocolate (separated in mini bowls to make color)
• food coloring

Steps

1. 1

   Chop the Kataifi dough into smaller pieces.

2. 2

   In a pan over medium heat, melt some butter and toast the Kataifi dough until golden brown. Once golden add in the tahini and pistachio cream.

3. 3

   Mix until well combined and turn off the heat.

4. 4

   Melt the white chocolate with 1 teaspoon of coconut oil and separate into mini bowl (however many colors you want to make). Drizzle the colored or white chocolate into the mold.

5. 5

   Melt using a double boiler or microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between. Pour some of the melted chocolate into the mold and completely cover the bottom and sides. Use a brush if needed.

6. 6

   Next, add in the pistachio Knafeh filling and smooth it down to make sure the filling gets to all the corners.

7. 7

   Top with more melted chocolate and spread to cover the pistachio knafeh filling completely. Let it set in the fridge for about 15 minutes, just until the chocolate hardens.

8. 8

   Once set, remove from the mold and slice into bars or break into pieces.
