Tip:

For an even more indulgent treat. Try adding a handful of crushed pistachios to the mix. Before pressing it into the pan. This adds an extra layer of nutty flavor. And a delightful crunch. If you’re melting the chocolate. Use a double boiler method. To prevent burning. Simply place a heat-safe bowl. Over a pot of simmering water. Stir the chocolate until melted. This method ensures a smooth, glossy finish. When drizzling the chocolate. Use a spoon for a more rustic look. Or a piping bag for precision. These little touches. Make a big difference. In both flavor and presentation!
