Chocolate Burfi Peda Bark
This Chocolate Burfi Peda Bark is a lovely dessert made with layers of chocolate burfi (peda) and white chocolate that’s topped off with dried fruits, flowers, and spices! There’s strawberries for acidity, lavender buds for a great aroma, and chopped pistachio for an added saltiness.
Ingredients
First Layer:
- 2 cups graham crackers , crushed
- 1 cup condensed milk
- 1 cup cocoa powder
- 1/2 cup milk , room temperature, as needed
- 1 tsp salt
- 2 tbsp butter , melted
Second Layer:
- 2 cups white chocolate chips
Garnishing:
- dried strawberries
- saffron
- edible lavender buds
- pistachio , chopped
- dried mangoes , cut into strips
- edible marigold flowers
- pinch sea salt
Instructions
-
Mix together the crushed graham crackers, salt, condensed milk, and cocoa powder. Once incorporated, add in the milk and butter. Mix together to create a dough.
-
Line an 8x8 dish with parchment paper and spread this chocolate mixture into a thin layer. If you’re finding it difficult to work with the dough, it might be easier to roll it out using a rolling pin and then putting it into the dish, using your fingers to fill any gaps. Cover it and keep it aside while we prepare the second layer.
-
For the white chocolate layer, melt the chocolate using the residual heat of a double boiler. Alternatively, you can microwave the chocolate in 30 second intervals until fully melted. Either way, make sure not to overheat the chocolate as it often dries out and begins to harden.
-
Once melted, quickly transfer the while chocolate to the same lined dish as before and spread into a thin layer on top of the chocolate dough from before.
-
Decorate the top liberally with the garnishes. Sprinkle sea salt on top.
-
Chill for 15 minutes in the fridge before cutting and serving.
