Dubai Viral Chocolate-Flavored Cheesecake recipe by morEwish

 


Dubai's vibrant culinary scene is always buzzing with new trends, and recently, a chocolate bar filled with crispy kunafa and pistachio cream has taken the city by storm. Inspired by this viral treat, I created the Dubai Viral Chocolate-Flavored Cheesecake, a luxurious dessert that mirrors the rich flavors and textures of the beloved chocolate bar.

This cheesecake is a delightful fusion of creamy, nutty, and chocolatey elements, with a base that captures the essence of crispy kunafa, a pistachio cream filling, and a luscious chocolate ganache topping. Let’s dive into the details of this irresistible dessert.



A Dessert Worth Going Viral

The Dubai Viral Chocolate-Flavored Cheesecake pays homage to the sensational chocolate bar with its crispy kunafa layer and pistachio cream filling. Each bite is a perfect harmony of crunchy, creamy, and chocolatey goodness. It’s the ultimate dessert for anyone who loves the unique flavors of the Middle East and the indulgence of chocolate.


Serving Suggestions

Serve this cheesecake as the highlight of your dessert table, paired with a cup of Arabic coffee or mint tea. It’s perfect for gatherings, celebrations, or simply as a luxurious treat to savor at home.




Ingredients Breakdown

For the Base:

Kadayif/Kataifi Pastry: Resembling the crispy layer of the chocolate bar, this pastry provides a crunchy base.

Unsalted Butter: Toasts the pastry to a golden brown, adding a rich flavor.

Pistachio Cream: Mimics the pistachio filling in the chocolate bar, adding a creamy nuttiness.

Tahini: Balances the sweetness with its slightly bitter undertones.

For the Pistachio Cheesecake Filling:

Cream Cheese: Forms the creamy, tangy base of the filling.

Pistachio Cream: Infuses the filling with a rich, nutty flavor.

White Chocolate: Adds sweetness and smoothness.

Vanilla Essence: Enhances the overall flavor profile.

Whipped ream: Whipped to add lightness to the filling.

Icing Sugar: Sweetens and stabilizes the whipped cream.

For the Ganache:

Dark Chocolate and Milk Chocolate: The combination creates a balanced chocolate topping.

Whipping Cream: When heated, it turns the chocolate into a smooth ganache.


1. Prepare the Base:

Finely chop the Kadayif pastry to ensure a uniform, crispy base.

Melt the butter in a pan and add the Kadayif. Toast the pastry until it's 80% browned, about 20 minutes, stirring constantly.

Transfer the toasted pastry to a bowl to cool. 

Mix the cooled pastry with pistachio cream and tahini. Set aside a few tablespoons for topping.

Press this mixture into a greased 9-inch springform pan and flatten it with the back of a spoon or a glass. Chill in the fridge while preparing the filling.

2. Create the Pistachio Filling:

Whisk the cream cheese, pistachio cream, melted white chocolate, and vanilla essence for 2-3 minutes until smooth.

In a separate bowl, whisk the cream with icing sugar until stiff peaks form.

Fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture gently.

Pour the filling over the prepared base, smoothing it out with a spatula. Refrigerate while making the ganache.

3. Make the Ganache:

Heat the cream in the microwave or over a double boiler until it starts to bubble.

Pour the hot cream over the chopped dark and milk cchocolate or chocolate chips and let it sit for a minute.

Stir until the chocolate melts and the ganache is smooth. If necessary, use a double boiler to melt any remaining chocolate.

Pour the ganache over the cheesecake filling and spread it evenly.

4. Final Touches and Chilling:

Decorate with the reserved Kadayif mixture, additional pistachio cream, and chopped pistachios.

Chill the cheesecake in the fridge overnight or for at least 6 hours to set.

Remove from the fridge 10 minutes before serving to allow it to soften slightly.

Oven-Fried Crispy Wings: Your New Go-To Recipe for Perfect Wings by morEwish

 


There’s nothing quite like biting into a crispy chicken wing with juicy, tender meat inside. The only downside? The mess and hassle of deep frying. Enter these Oven-Fried Crispy Wings—a healthier, easier alternative that doesn’t skimp on flavor or crunch. If you’ve been craving wings that deliver on all fronts, you’re in the right place.

Why Choose Oven-Fried Wings?

Fried chicken wings have a reputation for being indulgent, but they also come with a price: greasy hands, extra calories, and an inevitable cleanup session. Oven-fried wings, on the other hand, are:

Healthier: Less oil means fewer calories and a lighter feel.

Easier to Make: No need to babysit a deep fryer—just pop them in the oven and let the magic happen.

Crispy and Flavorful: With the right technique, oven-fried wings rival the crispiness of their fried counterparts.

Whether it’s a game night, a cozy dinner, or a family gathering, these wings are guaranteed to be a hit.




Instagram Reel:

Ingredients

Here’s everything you need for this recipe:

Chicken Wings: 3 pounds, split at the joint with tips removed. (Pro tip: Ask your butcher to do this for you to save time.)

Seasonings:

1 tsp salt

½ tsp black pepper

1 tsp garlic powder

1 tsp smoked paprika (or regular paprika if you prefer)

1 tsp onion powder

Butter or Oil: 2 tablespoons, for spraying the baking sheet and wings.

Feel free to customize the spices to your taste! Add cayenne pepper for heat, or a dash of dried thyme for an herby kick.


Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Prepare the Oven and Baking Sheet

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with foil or parchment paper for easy cleanup and spray it generously with a neutral oil (like avocado or canola oil). This step is crucial for achieving that coveted crispy texture.

2. Prep the Wings

Start by patting the wings completely dry with paper towels. Moisture is the enemy of crispiness, so take your time with this step. The drier the wings, the better the results.

3. Season Generously

In a large mixing bowl, combine the wings with salt, pepper, garlic powder, smoked paprika, and onion powder. Toss until every piece is evenly coated with the spice blend. For best results, cover the bowl and let the wings marinate in the fridge for at least 1 hour—or overnight, if you’re planning ahead.

4. Arrange the Wings

Place the wings on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer, leaving space between each one. Overcrowding will cause the wings to steam instead of crisp up, so use two baking sheets if needed.

5. Bake to Perfection

Bake the wings in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, flipping them halfway through. This ensures even cooking and crispy skin on all sides. You’ll know the wings are ready when they’re golden-brown, with a slightly blistered appearance.

6. Serve and Enjoy!

Remove the wings from the oven and let them rest for a few minutes. Serve them hot with your favorite dipping sauces—ranch, BBQ, or buffalo sauce are all great options.

Tips for Success

Patience is Key: Allowing the wings to marinate ensures the flavors penetrate the meat, making every bite delicious.

Flip for Evenness: Flipping the wings halfway through baking guarantees they cook evenly and develop a uniform crunch.

Experiment with Flavors: Don’t be afraid to try new spice blends or sauces to suit your mood.


Make It a Meal

Pair these wings with classic sides like celery sticks, carrot sticks, and a creamy dipping sauce. For a more filling meal, add a side of roasted sweet potatoes or a crisp garden salad.

Tips for the Best Coffee Hot Cocoa
