Follow the package instructions to thaw the Filo in the fridge. Once softened, place it on a cutting board and slice it into thin strips.
With clean hands, gently separate the Filo strands to ensure there are no clumps.
Heat a pan over medium heat and melt the butter. Once the butter shimmers, add the shredded Filo and stir continuously for 5 to 10 minutes until golden and crispy.
Remove from heat and transfer the toasted Filo to a bowl, allowing it to cool.
Melt the pistachio butter in the microwave or using a double boiler until it becomes runny. Mix it with the toasted Filo until well combined.
In a microwave or double boiler, melt the chocolate with coconut oil until smooth and runny.
Slice each Medjool date in half lengthwise, keeping one side intact, and remove the pit.
Spoon the pistachio mixture into the hollowed-out center of each date.
Dip each stuffed date into the melted chocolate, ensuring it's fully coated. Place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Sprinkle crushed pistachios on top and freeze until set. Enjoy!
