Instructions
- Delicately unpack the shredded filo pastry, allowing it to reach room temperature according to package guidelines.
- Meticulously slice the filo into gossamer-thin ribbons, gently separating each strand to prevent unwanted clustering.

- Simultaneously liquify the chocolate through gentle heating, creating a glossy, smooth liquid.
- Select a transparent mason jar as your canvas, commencing with a vibrant layer of fresh strawberries.
- Generously sprinkle the golden-toasted filo fragments atop the strawberries, creating textural intrigue.
- Cascade a mesmerizing drizzle of molten chocolate across the layer.
- Repeat the stratification process, building complexity with each addition.
- Crown the dessert with an abundant scattering of crisp filo shards and roughly chopped pistachios for a final flourish.
Notes
- Thaw filo carefully by following package instructions to prevent moisture buildup and maintain delicate texture.
- Separate filo strands gently to create light, airy crispy layers that add delightful crunch to the dessert.
- Use medium heat when cooking filo to achieve golden color without burning, stirring continuously for even browning.
- Choose high-quality dark or milk chocolate for richer flavor, ensuring smooth melting without seizing.
- Layer ingredients strategically to create visually appealing and texturally balanced dessert with each spoonful.
- Customize by substituting strawberries with seasonal fruits like raspberries or mangoes for variety.
- Make gluten-free version by using gluten-free filo or replacing with crushed gluten-free cookies or nuts.
- Prepare components ahead of time and assemble just before serving to maintain crispy filo texture and fresh fruit integrity.
