nuttela konafa chocolate kunafa
- 1/2 kg fresh kunafa
- 1/2 kg dessert cream liquid, fresh cream
- 1/4 kg unsalted butter
- 5 tbsp powdered sugar
- 1 tsp salt
- 3 tsp ground cinnamon
- 2 tbsp powdered chocolate, cocoa any type
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tbsp starch
- 2 can Nutella or chocolate paste
- using ur hands or scissors cut kunafa into shreds.
- kunafa or konafa is like angel hair noodles but its finer and used mainly in ramadan to make dessert could be stuffed with banana or ricotta cheese , baked then drizzled with liquid sugar syrup.
- cook kunafa with as much butter as it needs to be golden brown and crunchy, it burns fast so u need to keep stirring!
- best things to do is use a bigger pan or cook it in batches
- put on medium heat the cream, 2 or 3 tbs sugar, 2 tsp cinnamon, vanilla, cocoa, 2 large tbs butter and stir for a while.
- put the Nutella jars in hot water so it would soften up, add 1 or 1/2 a jar of Nutella into the cream mixture and heat for a while, u may add 1 tbs of starch to make it thicken, pudding is what we are aiming for here otherwise it'll be just chocolate ganache, it turned out soft and a tiny bit chewy
- place 1 thick layer of kunafa at the bottom of the pan, sprinkle the salt and some cinnamon over the layer.
- then add the whole cooled mixture of the chocolate cream.
- then use a large or serving spoon to evenly sprinkle another layer of kunafa, it's best to chill for a few minutes the first layers then add the rest of the kunafa so it wouldn't sink in.
- add some more nutella and then some cinnamon/ sugar.
- chill for an hour in the fridge or freezer just till it all sets.
- you don't have to use all the amounts, I just made it so full of everything as it was the first time and I always like to make my food ultimately heavenly and devilish, no diet on that day!
- u may add ice cream or whipped cream on top ;)
