Can I prepare the pistachio lava filling in advance?

Yes, the filling can be made and chilled up to 24 hours ahead. Just bake straight from chilled for the best gooey texture.

What if I don’t have pistachio paste?

You can make a homemade version by blending roasted pistachios with a little oil until smooth, though the flavor will be slightly different.
