This Viral Dubai Kunafa Chocolate Bar is a luxurious dessert that combines the crispiness of kunafa with the richness of chocolate and the nuttiness of pistachios. The recipe involves three main components: homemade kunafa dough, creamy pistachio butter, and a smooth chocolate filling.
First, the kunafa dough is prepared and shredded to create a crispy base. Then, a rich pistachio butter is blended to a smooth consistency, adding depth of flavor. The chocolate filling, made from a mix of dark and white chocolate, is melted to a silky texture, with optional food coloring to enhance its appearance.
These layers are then assembled into a chocolate bar, creating a crispy, creamy, and chocolatey fusion. Once set, the result is a decadent, melt-in-your-mouth treat that has taken social media by storm!
