Ingredients
- 200 g White Chocolate (break into small pieces for even melting)
- 1/2 tsp Yellow Food Coloring (gel or liquid, food‑grade only)
- 200 g Milk Chocolate (use a good quality milk or dark chocolate bar, broken into pieces)
- 150 g Pistachio Cream (smooth pistachio butter or pistachio paste)
- 2 tbsp Tahini (smooth, unsalted)
- 1 pinch Sea Salt (enhances flavor of the filling)
- 30 g Shredded Filo Pastry (optional garnish, toasted lightly)
Instructions
Prepare the Mold
Inspect the silicone mold for any debris, wash quickly with warm soapy water, rinse and pat dry completely.
Time: PT5M
Melt White Chocolate and Add Yellow Color
Place 100 g of white chocolate in a heat‑proof bowl. Microwave in 30‑second bursts, stirring between bursts, until fully melted and smooth. Stir in the yellow food coloring until evenly distributed.
Time: PT5M
Create the Yellow Layer
Using a spoon, drizzle the yellow‑tinted chocolate around the interior walls of each mold cavity, rotating the mold to coat evenly. Let the layer set at room temperature for about 5 minutes.
Time: PT5M
Melt Remaining White Chocolate (No Color)
Melt the remaining 100 g of white chocolate using the same microwave or double‑boiler method until smooth.
Time: PT5M
Add the White Layer
Drizzle the plain white chocolate over the set yellow layer, again rotating the mold to coat the walls. Allow this layer to set for another 5 minutes.
Time: PT5M
Melt Milk Chocolate
Break 200 g of milk chocolate into pieces and melt until smooth, using the microwave or double boiler.
Time: PT5M
Apply the Milk Chocolate Base
Drizzle the melted milk chocolate over the white layer, coating the interior of each cavity. Let it set for 5 minutes.
Time: PT5M
Prepare the Pistachio‑Tahini Filling
In a mixing bowl, combine 150 g pistachio cream, 2 tbsp tahini, and a pinch of sea salt. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and glossy.
Time: PT5M
Fill the Mold
Spoon the pistachio‑tahini mixture into each cavity, filling just up to the rim but not overflowing. Smooth the top with the back of a spoon or spatula.
Time: PT5M
Seal with Final Chocolate Layer
Melt any remaining milk chocolate (or use dark chocolate for contrast). Drizzle or pour a thin layer over the filled cavities to seal the chocolate bars.
Time: PT5M
Chill to Set
Place the filled mold in the refrigerator for at least 20 minutes, or until the chocolate is completely firm.
Time: PT20M
Unmold and Garnish
Gently pop each chocolate bar out of the silicone mold. If desired, sprinkle toasted shredded filo pastry on top for a crunchy garnish.
Time: PT5M
