02 -
400 g dark chocolate (55-65% cocoa, melted and prepared)
03 -
1 pinch salt

75 g butter, liquefied
05 -
200 g kataifi dough (kunefe), fluffed and shredded

07 -
1.5 teaspoons plain vegetable oil (optional)

3 tablespoons pistachios, roughly chopped (for topping)
# Instructions:
01 -
Break apart the kataifi into smaller pieces and loosen up the strands. In a pot with butter, cook over medium heat until crispy and golden. Let it completely cool down.

Stir together the melted white chocolate, pistachio butter, and salt. Be sure to let the mixture cool down a bit before adding it to the kataifi.
03 -
Shape the pistachio mixture into little balls. Pop them into the freezer until they’re nice and firm.

Dip each frozen ball into the prepared dark chocolate. Let any extra chocolate drip off, then sprinkle pistachio pieces on top. Leave them to set before enjoying!
# Notes:
01 -
The crispy kataifi base gives the chocolate-covered treats a delightful crunch.

Chilling the pistachio mixture balls makes dipping them much easier.
