Mafroukeh Festou (Lebanese Semolina Pistachio Truffle)
There’s chocolate truffle... and then there’s this Lebanese specialty. These luscious balls are made from a combination of Knefeh Mafroukeh (semolina flour), butter and pistachio before they are filled with ashta-clotted cream prepared usually with rose water and orange blossom water. The creaminess of ashta helps cut through the nutty taste of pistachios. If you’re a fan of pistachios, this dessert is definitely one for you.
