Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 2 cups kataifi
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 cup pistachio paste
- 2 tablespoons tahini
- 2 cups milk chocolate
- 1/3 cup white chocolate
- 3 drops food coloring (green)
Instructions
- Roughly chop the kataifi dough.
- Melt butter in a nonstick skillet over medium-low heat, coat the pan, and add the shortened kataifi threads, stirring occasionally until becomes golden brown, 5-10 minutes. Remove from pan.
- In a large bowl, mix the toasted kataifi with pistachio paste, and tahini. Set aside while you prepare the chocolate.
- In separate bowls, melt milk chocolate (I recommend using a double boiler to do this) as well as the white chocolate.
- Add the food coloring to the melted white chocolate, and mix.
- Drizzle the colored white chocolate on the inside of a chocolate bar mold, followed by enough melted milk chocolate to comfortably cover the bottom of the mold. Freeze for 10 minutes.
- Spoon in the pistachio and kataifi mixture. Use a palette knife to flatten the pistachio filling and to ensure it is spread the sides of the mold.
- Gently add a top layer of milk chocolate.
- Freeze for another ten minutes, or until the chocolate is completely set. Carefully remove from the mold, and enjoy!
