How to Make Billie Eilish's Vegan Dubai Chocolate
- Start by melting the plant-based butter in a pan over medium heat. Add the shredded Dökme tel kadayıf and stir until it turns golden brown, which should take about 5 minutes. Remove the pan from heat and let the kadayıf cool slightly.
- Melt the vegan chocolate bar in a double boiler or microwave until smooth. Set aside to cool slightly.
- Pour a thin layer of melted chocolate into a silicone mold, and place it in the freezer for about 15 minutes, or until set.
- In a bowl, mix the Dökme tel kadayıf with the pistachio spread until it forms a thick, smooth paste.
- Once the chocolate layer has set, spread the pistachio mixture evenly over the chocolate layer. Pour more melted chocolate over the pistachio layer and return the mold to the freezer to set for about 2 hours.
- Once set, remove the dessert from the mold, cut into pieces, and serve. Enjoy this rich, decadent treat with a cup of coffee or tea!
