Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 1 package of kunafa dough
- 1 cup of unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup of shredded kunafa dough
- 1/2 cup of granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup of water
- 1 teaspoon of rose water
- 1/2 cup of chopped pistachios
- 6 scoops of vanilla ice cream
- 1/2 cup of chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

- Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the kunafa is golden brown and crispy.

- Sprinkle the chopped pistachios over the kunafa.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate chips in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until smooth and melted.
