ingredients:

 

  • 100g Pistakio 

    OG pistachio spread

  • 200g dark chocolate (70% cocoa), chopped
  • 100ml butter
  • 2 tbsp cocoa powder
  • 50g powdered sugar, sifted
  • 150g shortbread or biscoff cookies, roughly broken into small chunks
  • 100g pistachios, toasted and roughly chopped
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar for dusting

     

    instructions:

     

    • in a large heat proof bowl, melt butter and chocolate in 30 second increments.
    • to the melted mixture, add cocoa, powdered sugar, vanilla and salt and mix until no clumps remain, followed by your pistakio.
    • chop your pistachios + shortbread and add to your chocolate mixture.
    • transfer to the middle of a large piece of parchment and roll like a burrito. you can do an initial shape, pop it in the fridge to set for an hour and reshape by rolling on the counter lightly or wrapping the parchment tighter.
    • let set up completely, overnight is best, before unwrapping and coating in powdered sugar! rolling on the parchment helps the sugar stick. slice and enjoy!
