To make pistachio filling:
Soak raw, unsalted, shelled pistachio for at least one hour in warm water**. Peel off if there is any red skin on the nut. Add soaked pistachio, maple syrup, almond flour, and cardamom powder to a small food processor and process till the mixture is grainy in texture***.
To assemble the fudge bowl, roll almond dough in a cylindrical shape and cut into eight equal pieces. Then mold each piece into a bowl shape (or get creative and make any other shape) and fill with pistachio mixture. Store in refrigerator for 3-4 days. Enjoy
*or use a blender
**you can also use pistachio without soaking if you like the crunchy texture in sweets
***if you have kevra or rosewater in your pantry, you can add it to the pistachio mixture.
