Oh, my lord. That would be a decadent dessert. Our newish Turkish place makes a version(ish, it’s mostly chocolate and pistachios, no kadaif) that’s not too rich, but we always share a slice anyway.

Recipe says it serves 10. I suppose it could be a showstopper dessert at a party…

Wonder if I could convince my dude to try his hand at it. But we really don’t need that kinda stuff in the house. It also doesn’t scream JULY (or even August) to me.

Might be a fab dessert for a dinner party in winter, tho :slight_smile:

Yes, I see what you mean, but cheesecake is usually served chilled or room temp, no? And some fresh summer fruits on the side would help cut through the richness.

I’m a sucker. This was better than the previous no-name brand I bought at the grocery store - better quality chocolate. Wished it was a little thicker, though.

Saw that at the local Mallwart. $14.99 for a bar that’s much thinner than the Beemax one we picked up at the Giant market for $11.99. TBH it also doesn’t look nearly as appealing.

Guess yer paying for that fancy Lindt name.

That’s the one I had also. This one is better.

It’s all a matter of personal preference. I prefer spending that much money on a heftier bar with a nutty, toasty, crispy filling.

Evidently, some of the Dubai chocolate bar made its way into a dessert last night…
