1

Place the melted butter and saffron or yellow food coloring in a skillet over medium heat. Add the kunafa dough and stir to coat evenly with the butter. Lightly toast the kunafa until golden.
2

Spread half of the kunafa in the skillet. Add the cream, cream cheese, and mozzarella cheese on top, spreading them evenly.
3

Add the remaining kunafa on top, smooth it with a spoon, and cook over very low heat until the bottom is golden. Flip carefully and toast the other side.
4

Pour the syrup or honey over the kunafa while it's still hot. Enjoy!
