For Garnishing:

  • ¼ cup of cashews.
  • ¼ cup of almonds.
  • ¼ cup of pistachios.

Preparation Method:

  1. Prepare the Syrup:

    • Spoon half of the cream evenly over the cheese layer.

  4. Prepare the Milk and Semolina Mixture:

    • In a saucepan, combine the liquid milk, semolina, and sugar. Cook over medium heat while stirring constantly until the mixture thickens (about 3 minutes).
    • Remove from heat and stir in the remaining cream, mixing until fully combined.

  5. Assemble and Bake:

    • Pour the milk and semolina mixture over the cupcake molds, covering the cheese and cream layers.
    • Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F) and bake the kunafa for about 30 minutes until golden and fully set.
