RECIPE INGREDIENTS

» For Pistachio Cream Cups

• Puff pastry shells, store-bought or homemade
• 1/4 cup cream cheese, softened
• 1-2 tablespoons icing sugar, or to taste
• 2 tablespoons pistachio butter
• A few drops of rose water or rose extract
• 1/8 cup roasted pistachios
• Dried rose petals for garnish

RECIPE INSTRUCTIONS

» How to Make Pistachio Cream Cups

1. If using shelled pistachios, remove the shells and grind them into a coarse powder using a mortar and pestle. Set aside. In a small bowl, add the softened cream cheese, icing sugar, and pistachio butter.
2. Mix until smooth and creamy. Add a few drops of rose water and 1 tablespoon of the coarsely powdered pistachios. Mix well and chill for 30 minutes.
3. Transfer the pistachio cream into a piping bag fitted with a round or star tip. Pipe the mixture into the cooled puff pastry shells.
4. Top each cup with sliced pistachios, garnish with dried rose petals, and sprinkle some of the remaining coarse pistachio powder on top. Deliciously nutty, lightly floral, and perfect for parties or festive treats are ready. Chill them for 10-15 minutes, or serve immediately.

RECIPE NOTES

1. Filling can be used right after mixing, but chilling is recommended as it pipes well so it holds its shape better.
2. You can use both homemade or store-bought pistachio butter for making these cups.
