  • Total Time: 35 minutes
  • Yield: Approximately 12 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 7 ounces Kataifi pastry
  • ⅓ cup unsalted butter
  • 5.3 ounces white chocolate
  • 5.3 ounces natural pistachio butter
  • 1 pinch sea salt
  • 1.5 teaspoons neutral vegetable oil (optional)
  • 14.1 ounces dark chocolate (55-65% cocoa)
  • 3 tablespoons chopped pistachios (for decoration)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Spread kataifi pastry on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and drizzle melted butter over it. Bake for about 15 minutes until golden brown.
  2. In a bowl, mix melted white chocolate with pistachio butter and add a pinch of salt. Optionally, stir in vegetable oil for smoother consistency.
  3. Once the kataifi has cooled, break it into small pieces and wrap a small amount of pistachio filling with the kataifi strands to form balls.
  4. Melt dark chocolate using a double boiler or microwave until smooth, then dip each ball into the melted chocolate until fully coated.
  5. While the chocolate is still wet, sprinkle chopped pistachios on top for decoration and let them set at room temperature or refrigerate until firm.
