Persian Nights Thumbprints – Chocolate Pistachio Cream Thumbprints with Kadaif
#ChocolateChallenge
Profile: AmateurThese cookies were born from the desire to combine the elegance of chocolate with the freshness of pistachio and the unexpected crunch of kadayif. The chocolate dough provides a firm base, while the white chocolate and pistachio cream brings smoothness and luxury. Delicate golden threads of kadayif weave through the filling, adding playfulness and highlighting contrasts.
Ingredients:
For Chocolate Thumbprints: unsalted butter; granulated sugar; egg yolk (egg white reserved if rolling in nuts); vanilla extract; all-purpose flour; Dutch-processed cocoa powder; salt; chopped pistachios (for rolling)
For Pistachio Cream Filling: white chocolate; pistachio butter (homemade); powdered sugar; salt; pistachio extract; vanilla powder; kadayif, lightly toasted, for crunchTechniques Applied
Creaming method – butter and sugar whipped until fluffy to incorporate air and achieve a light dough texture.
Sifting – flour, cocoa, and salt sifted for even distribution of dry ingredients.
Shaping & indentation – rolling dough into balls and forming precise cavities for the filling.
Nut coating – rolling dough balls in chopped pistachios for textural and flavor contrast.
Controlled baking – baked at moderate temperature to preserve soft centers with firm edges.
Emulsification – melting white chocolate and blending it with pistachio butter, powdered sugar, and flavorings into a smooth cream.
Textural integration – incorporating finely shredded and lightly toasted kadayif into the cream for an added crunchy dimension.
Chocolate is the protagonist, but it thrives in company that makes it even richer and more layered.

No doubt about it — you’re ready for your own photography book, Lana 📸✨
There’s such harmony between your creations and the styling choices. It makes me wonder… do you choose your props before or after the bake? Because they match like a storyboard.
The cookies themselves are beautifully executed. The contrast between the clean finish of the plain thumbprints and the more rustic, pistachio-coated ones works really well visually and texturally. The cream has a smooth, inviting finish, and the kadayif adds just enough whimsy without feeling crowded.
Your eye — both for flavor combinations and composition — is something to admire 💚👏

@soldamiani Thank you so much dear. Sometimes I plan the props and styling in advance, almost like a little storyboard in my head, and other times it just happens spontaneously. ❤️
