Znoud el Sit, meaning "Lady's Arms" in Arabic, is a rich Lebanese dessert made from phyllo dough filled with ashta (clotted cream), then rolled, deep-fried until golden, and soaked in orange blossom–scented sugar syrup. Traditionally prepared for Ramadan, weddings, and festive gatherings, this dessert originated in Beirut and the northern regions of Lebanon. The crisp exterior and silky filling create a luxurious contrast, often garnished with crushed pistachios.

Common variations include oven-baked versions or Znoud el Sit bi fustok (with pistachio cream).
