Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Spread kataifi pastry on a baking sheet and drizzle with melted butter. Bake for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden brown.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine pistachio butter and melted white chocolate, stirring until smooth. Let the filling cool slightly before shaping.
