PREPARATION
1. Prepare the Kataifi:
- Heat ghee in a frying pan over medium heat.
- Add the shredded phyllo and fry until golden and crispy for about 8-10 mins. Use a slotted spoon to remove and drain on a paper towel.

- Store any leftover puree in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
3. Make the Strawberry Cream Cheese Filling:
- In a mixing bowl, blend the cream cheese, powdered sugar, strawberry puree (or jam), and vanilla paste until smooth.
4. Combine Filling with Kataifi:
- Add the fried kataifi to the strawberry cream cheese mixture and mix until well combined.
5. Prepare Chocolate Molds:
- If desired, drizzle a light layer of melted chocolate into the molds and let set in the fridge for about 8 minutes.
- Add more melted chocolate to the mold, allowing any excess to drip off, then put it back in the fridge for about 10 minutes or until it sets.
- Fill each mold with a layer of the strawberry cream cheese kataifi mixture.
- Add a thin layer of strawberry jam on top of the cream cheese filling.
- Cover the filling and jam completely with more melted chocolate.
