Dubai Chocolate Strawberry Cup
Dubai Chocolate Strawberry Cups—rich chocolate infused with Middle Eastern flavors, fresh strawberries, and pistachio cream. A perfect no-bake, easy dessert!
Servings: 2 Cups
Ingredients
- 1½ cup shredded kataifi dough
- 2 tbsps butter unsalted
- 1 tbsp tahini paste
- 1 cup milk chocolate or dark chocolate
- ¾ cup pistachio cream
- 1½ cup fresh strawberries
- chopped pistachios for garnishing
- ½ cup heavy cream
Instructions
- 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. Mix until well combined.
- Melt using a double boiler or microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between. Once all the chocolate melts, add in the heavy cream and mix until ganache is smooth. If you prefer your ganache to be more fluid, add in 1 tbsp more heavy cream at a time to reach desired consistency.
- Wash and cut up the strawberries. At this point, you should have everything ready to layering your strawberry cups.
- Start layering the the strawberry cups. Place each ingredient in layers and repeat the process until you fill the cups.
Notes
-
- Use sweet strawberries for better flavor.
-
- Make your pistachio cream at home for a cleaner version. Store bought pistachio cream have a lot of additives and preservatives.
-
- It's best to make the chocolate ganache instead of using melted chocolate if you are not consuming right away. Chocolate will harden up in the fridge.
-
- I recommend storing all ingredients separately and assemble every time you're ready to eat this way the ingredients stay fresh and crunchy.
