Ingredients

Kataifi Pastry Filling

  • 100g Antoniou Kataifi Pastry
  • 230g spreading filling: Pistachio spread, Nutella, Caramel, or Biscoff (or a combination)

Chocolate Shell

  • 600g milk or dark chocolate, melted

Instructions

  1. Prepare Kataifi Pastry: Remove the Kataifi Pastry from the refrigerator at least 2 hours before use to bring it to room temperature. If frozen, take it out at least 4 hours prior, keeping it sealed in its packet.
  2. Cut and Separate Pastry: Using a sharp knife, cut the Kataifi Pastry into uniform 1cm pieces and gently separate any pieces stuck together to ensure even cooking.
  3. Cook Kataifi Pastry: Place the pastry evenly in a large frypan over medium heat without overcrowding. Continuously mix and toss the pastry to prevent burning and promote even crisping. Cook for 5 to 10 minutes until the pastry turns a deep golden brown and transforms to a crisp texture. Immediately transfer to a bowl off the heat.
  4. Mix Filling: Spoon the pistachio, Nutella, caramel, or Biscoff spread into the warm crispy Kataifi pastry and mix well to combine.
  5. Prepare Chocolate Cups: Line a 24-hole mini cupcake tin with mini cupcake liners. Spoon about two teaspoons of melted chocolate into each liner, swirling to coat the sides. Refrigerate until the chocolate sets firmly.
  6. Fill Chocolate Cups: Add a teaspoon of the crispy Kataifi filling into each set chocolate cup, then top each with another two teaspoons of melted chocolate. Return to the refrigerator to set completely.
  7. Decorate: Once fully set, add a small dollop of the crispy Kataifi filling on top of each chocolate for garnish and extra texture.

Notes

  • Ensure Kataifi pastry is brought to room temperature before cooking for best results.
  • Keep stirring the pastry constantly to avoid burning and achieve an even crisp.
  • Use good quality chocolate for smooth melting and rich flavor.
  • Store the finished chocolates in a cool, dry place or refrigerate if your environment is warm.
  • Variations: Try mixing different spreads for layered flavor complexity.
