On social media, Dubai chocolate, which combines chocolate with pistachio cream and kataifi dough (a phyllo dough in thin filaments that becomes crispy once cooked), is going viral. We were inspired by this unique confectionery to make brownies. With a layer of brownie that’s both rich and fudgy and a layer of crunchy pistachios, this indulgent recipe hits all the right notes.

Note from Ricardo

Kataifi dough is available in most Middle Eastern or European grocery stores. It can be replaced here with 3 large pieces (75 g) Shredded Wheat-style cereal, crumbled.

We used a lightly sweetened pistachio cream. Ideally, your cream should contain between 45% to 55% pistachios.

The chocolate is tempered here to mimic the snap of Dubai chocolate bars. You can simply melt all of the chocolate with the butter, but the chocolate topping will be much softer as a result.
