Description
Creamy pistachio-filled chocolate bars inspired by Dubai chocolate ingredients—nutty, floral, and indulgent with every bite.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup pistachio butter (unsweetened or lightly sweetened)
- 1/3 cup white chocolate chips (melted)
- 1 tsp rosewater
- 1/8 tsp saffron threads (optional)
- Pinch of cardamom
- 8 oz milk or dark chocolate (for coating)
Instructions
- In a small bowl, mix pistachio butter, melted white chocolate, rosewater, saffron, and cardamom until smooth.
- Chill the mixture for 10–15 minutes to firm it up slightly.
- Melt the milk or dark chocolate in a double boiler or microwave in 30-second bursts.
- Spoon a small layer of melted chocolate into silicone molds or a parchment-lined tray. Chill until firm.
- Add a spoonful of pistachio filling on top of each base layer. Press gently to flatten.
- Cover the filling completely with another layer of melted chocolate. Tap to remove air bubbles.
- Chill for 1 hour or until fully set. Pop out of molds and serve or gift.
Notes
Store in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 7 days.
You can substitute white chocolate with condensed milk for a richer filling.
Add crushed pistachios or edible gold leaf for extra texture and presentation.
