Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the kataifi and cook, stirring constantly until browned and crispy, about 10 minutes. Turn off the heat and stir in the pistachio butter and tahini. Allow to cool for 10 minutes in the pan.
Place the chocolate chips and coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave at 30 second intervals, stirring in between, until all the chocolate is melted.
Add 8 strawberry halves to the bottom of each of 4 clear 12-ounce cups. Drizzle with about 2 tablespoons of melted chocolate to fill the gaps between the strawberries.
Add about 3 tablespoons of the kataifi filling on top.
Repeat another layer of strawberry halves, followed by kataifi filling, more chocolate drizzle, and a sprinkle of crushed pistachios.
Enjoy immediately or chill in the fridge for 10 minutes to allow the chocolate to set.

Cover and refrigerate for up to 5 days. Strawberries may soften after 2 days but will still taste great.
