instructions:

• start by pulling your shot of espresso and set to the side to chill.

• make your dubai filling in a small pan by heating your butter to toast the kataifi.

• transfer the toasted and golden kataifi to a bowl and add your pistakio spread.

• mix to combine and set aside.

• in a separate bowl, make your cream layer by combining all of your ingredients and whip until just combined (don't overmix!)
  

• find a fun glass and start by layering your ladyfingers *just* dipped in the cooled espresso, followed by your cream and finished with your dubai filling.

• top it all off with a layer of dark chocolate, toasted + chopped pistachios and flakey salt. Let set up completely, for at least 4 hours or overnight.

• enjoy!
