Press half of the buttered kunafa into the bottom of a baking dish to form a base.

Spread a layer of chocolate over the kunafa base.

In a saucepan, combine milk, sugar, and a pinch of salt; heat until sugar dissolves.

Pour the milk mixture over the chocolate layer, ensuring even coverage.

Add the remaining kunafa dough on top, pressing down gently.

Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes until golden brown.

Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before adding syrup.

Drizzle rose water syrup over the top and garnish with crushed pistachios.

Serve warm or at room temperature.
