Step-by-Step Instructions for Dubai Chocolate Cups
  1. Begin by finely chopping the dark chocolate and placing it in a heatproof bowl over a pot of simmering water. Stir until melted and glossy, about 5-10 minutes.
  2. Grease the insides of your silicone mold or muffin tin. Spoon the melted chocolate into each cavity, filling them halfway.
  3. Spread the melted chocolate up the sides of each mold to create an even coating.
  4. Place molds in the refrigerator to set the chocolate base for about 10-15 minutes.
  5. In a mixing bowl, combine the pistachio tahini with the crushed toasted phyllo dough until creamy.
  6. Once the chocolate cups have set, spoon the pistachio tahini mixture into each base, filling to the top.
  7. Melt more dark chocolate and pour it over the filled cups, then return to the refrigerator for an hour.
  8. After chilling, gently release the chocolate cups from the mold and serve them chilled.
