Ingredients
2 cups (340g) Good quality milk chocolate
1 cup (250g) Pistachio butter/spread
1.5 cups (150g) Gluten-free wafer cookies/biscuits, crushed
½ cup Chopped pistachios (unsalted)
1 tsp Coconut oil (optional, for melting chocolate)
¼ cup White chocolate (optional, for drizzle)
Instructions
- Prepare your pan: Line an 8×8 inch square baking dish with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides
- Melt chocolate: Gently melt half of your milk chocolate chips with ½ tsp coconut oil (if using) in a microwave or double boiler. Stir until smooth
- Create the base: Pour the melted chocolate into the prepared pan. Tilt the pan to evenly coat the bottom. Place it in the fridge for 10-15 minutes until set
- Mix the filling: In a bowl, combine the pistachio butter, crushed gluten-free wafers, and ¼ cup of chopped pistachios. Mix thoroughly until everything is well combined. This forms the delicious core of your Viral GF Dubai Pistachio Chocolate Bars
- Layer the filling: Spread the pistachio mixture evenly over the set chocolate base. Press it down gently but firmly
- Add top chocolate layer: Melt the remaining milk chocolate with ½ tsp coconut oil. Pour this melted chocolate over the pistachio filling layer. Spread it smoothly
- Decorate: Immediately sprinkle the remaining ¼ cup of chopped pistachios over the top. If desired, melt white chocolate and drizzle it decoratively over the bars
- Chill and set: Return the pan to the fridge for at least 1-2 hours, or until the bars are completely firm
- Cut and serve: Once set, remove the bars from the pan using the parchment paper overhang. Cut them into squares or rectangles. Enjoy your homemade Viral GF Dubai Pistachio Chocolate Bars!
Notes
For the best Viral GF Dubai Pistachio Chocolate Bars, always use high-quality chocolate. It truly makes a difference in flavor and texture.
Ensure your pistachio butter is smooth and creamy for a perfect filling.
Chill each chocolate layer fully before adding the next; this prevents layers from mixing.
When pressing the pistachio filling, apply even pressure for uniform bars.
Use a sharp knife heated slightly under hot water for clean cuts when slicing your Viral GF Dubai Pistachio Chocolate Bars.
Store your Viral GF Dubai Pistachio Chocolate Bars in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week. They maintain their best texture when chilled.
While these bars are not typically “reheated,” you can let them sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes before serving for a slightly softer texture.
These GF Dubai Pistachio Chocolate Bars also freeze well for up to 2 months; simply thaw them in the fridge overnight.
