Base Ingredients:

  • 200 g dark chocolate 70% cocoa for a rich flavor, or adjust based on your preference
  • 100 g white chocolate optional, for drizzling or layering
  • ½ cup roasted almonds or pistachios chopped for a crunchy texture
  • ¼ cup dried dates or figs finely chopped for a natural sweetness
  • 1 tsp cardamom powder for a signature Middle Eastern aroma
  • A pinch of sea salt to enhance the chocolate’s depth of flavor

Optional Add-ins:

  • 2 tbsp shredded coconut lightly toasted for a tropical flair
  • 1 tbsp edible rose petals for a stunning visual and subtle floral note
  • Sprinkles or edible gold flakes for a festive touch
  • Tools You’ll Need:
  • A medium-sized heatproof bowl
  • A saucepan for the double boiler method or a microwave-safe bowl
  • A spatula for smooth mixing
  • A lined baking tray or silicone mold for setting the bars

Instructions
 

Prepare the Ingredients and Tools

  • Measure all the ingredients beforehand to keep the process smooth.
  • Line a square or rectangular baking dish with parchment paper to avoid sticking and ensure easy removal.

Create the Base Layer

  • In a mixing bowl, combine crushed biscuits and melted butter. Mix until the texture resembles damp sand.
  • Press this mixture firmly and evenly into the prepared dish to form the base layer. Use the back of a spoon for a smooth finish.
  • Chill the base in the refrigerator for 10-15 minutes while you work on the next layer.

Prepare the Chocolate Layer

  • Melt milk chocolate and dark chocolate together using a double boiler or microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each interval to prevent burning.
  • Add a splash of cream for a glossy and velvety texture.

Assemble the Layers

  • Pour the melted chocolate mixture evenly over the chilled biscuit base.
  • Use a spatula to smooth out the surface for a polished appearance.
  • Sprinkle toppings like chopped nuts, mini marshmallows, or edible gold dust to capture the luxurious essence of the Dubai Chocolate Bar.

Set the Dessert

  • Refrigerate the assembled bar for at least 2 hours or until the chocolate is fully set.

Slice and Serve

  • Once set, use a sharp knife to cut the dessert into even squares or bars. For clean edges, warm the knife under hot water and dry it before each cut.
