1
Prepare the Pistachios
In a food processor, pulse the shelled pistachios until they are finely ground but not a paste. Set aside.
2
Whip the Cream
In a mixing bowl, add the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Use a hand mixer or stand mixer to whip until soft peaks form.
3
Combine
Gently fold the ground pistachios into the whipped cream until fully incorporated. Be careful not to deflate the cream.

4
Melt the Chocolate
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chopped dark chocolate and coconut oil. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until smooth.

5
Prepare the Kataifi
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). In a bowl, combine the kataifi dough with melted butter and sugar. Toss until the dough is well coated.
6
Bake
Spread the kataifi mixture on a baking sheet in an even layer. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown. Let cool.

7
Fill the Base
Spoon the pistachio whipped filling into a serving dish or individual cups to create a base layer.
8
Add Chocolate
Drizzle the melted chocolate over the pistachio whipped filling, ensuring an even coating.
9
Top with Kataifi
Sprinkle the baked kataifi topping over the chocolate layer for added texture and flavor.
