Equipment
- 1 Chopping board
- 1 knife
- 1 Spoon
- 1 bowl
- 2 large cups
Ingredients
- 2 cups strawberries, hulled and chopped
- 1 cup Crunchy Pistachio Cream
- 5 oz dark chocolate, chopped You can also use chocolate chips
- 1 tsp coconut oil* Optional — for smoother chocolate
- 4 tbsp roasted pistachios, roughly crushed
Instructions
Melt the chocolate
- Combine chopped chocolate and coconut oil in a heatproof bowl. Microwave in 30-second bursts, stirring between each, until smooth. Let cool 2–3 minutes until fluid but not steaming.
Start layer one — strawberries.
- Add a generous layer of chopped strawberries to the base of each cup, covering the bottom completely.
Layer two — pistachio cream.
- Spoon a generous layer of crunchy pistachio cream over the strawberries. Spread gently — it doesn't need to be perfectly even.
Layer three — chocolate.
- Drizzle or pour melted dark chocolate over the pistachio cream layer.
Layer four - crushed pistachios.
- Sprinkle a handful of crushed pistachios over the chocolate.
Repeat
- Continue layering — strawberries, pistachio cream, chocolate, pistachios — stacking until you reach the very top of the cup.
Finish the top
- End with a generous drizzle of chocolate and a big handful of crushed pistachios for maximum visual impact.
Serve
- Enjoy immediately while the chocolate is still slightly fluid, or refrigerate for 10 minutes if you prefer a firmer texture. Best eaten the same day.
