All Greek are lazy in the kitchen .These is the taste of laziness.Not bad if you have never try a good baklava.These recipe is not even close to the real original Turkish kind Baklava.

Ok, now I know why they charge so much for baklava at the restaurants, lol!! This recipe is AMAZING just as written, but I think I will never look at Phyllo dough the same way again because it was very taxing to work with. Though a bit time consuming, this is a wonderful creation and the directions were very thorough (thank you for that). I used pecans because that is what we had in the house and followed the instructions exactly as indicated. Everyone is raving about how good it is!! Thank you again for sharing!! :)

It has been a great seller for fund raising and I have made this recipe dozens of times. Many of the Greeks my husband works with say it tastes like the "real thing".

I just made this and it was a hit. I had tasted baklava a few years ago and loved it. The only difference from those and these is that these ones just weren't very goowie though so next time I will double the sauce. I followed someones review to cut almost to the bottom and not completely and making the sauce before and letting it cool before putting it on the hot baklava. It was pretty simple to assemble and I only dabbed a little butter on each layer instead of being generous with it and it helped make it nice and crispy. Very good though but needs more sauce.

Phenomenal recipe! My family, friends and co-workers LOVED it. I do toast/roast the nuts (pistachios and walnuts) and add a little nutmeg along with the cinnamon. Do make sure to only cut half way through before baking -- it makes a world of difference in the texture! THANKS AGAIN!

This is the best dessert I have ever made. Everything about it, from the phyllo to the honey sauce, is so delicate. I used almonds and ground them almost to a powder. I also made one and a half times the sauce. This is good beyond words.

I went to college with Greeks, live down the street from an amazing Greek pizza parlor and this is the good stuff. The only changes I've made are different nuts or some citrus zest r a hint of nutmeg. It could go for a lower temp or less time, just keep an eye on it. I normally make sure the nuts are nice and small, a spice grinder will help there. I did make a different version for a wedding shower once. Added lime zest to the sauce and used crystallized ginger in the filling with almonds. Very different but good.

This was really tasty. For some reason though, I had a TON of sauce left over, and I drenched the baklava. Next time I think I'll cut the sauce in half.

Wonderful recipe. I used walnuts and pecans, but next time I will chop them a little finer. The baklava turned out great. Definately make the sauce ahead of time. YUM!

This is a great classic Baklava recipe. I used a mixtue of nuts - walnuts, almonds and macadamia - since I love any kind of nuts. I put some in my blender and chopped some by hand to have different textures of nuts. 2 things I did wrong - 1. I didn't butter my top 6 or 8 layers enough, so they separated from the nuts layers when I picked them up. 2. My honey mixture boiled over since I wasn't watching it. All in all, my baklava still came out perfect. DEF made the sauce ahead of time and let sit while the baklava is baking. I will use this recipe again around the holidays.
