Note

Pour a thin layer of white chocolate first so that some of the mold is empty. This allows the green chocolate to appear.
Keep the chocolate on low and watch it closely to prevent burning
Don't over-pulse the nuts, they need to stay crumbly. Over blending will turn them to nut butter and ruin the texture.
