Christmas Baklava

Christmas Baklava

Ingredients:

1/2 pound chopped pecans

1/2 pound chopped walnuts

2-3 tablespoons ground cinnamon

1 pound package of phyllo dough

1-1/2 cup melted butter

2-1/2 cup honey

1 teaspoon vanilla

1 teaspoon lemon peel

Mix the walnuts in a large bowl and mix with the ground cinnamon. Sit aside.

Steps:

Butter a 9×13 inch baking dish.

Place 2 sheets of paper in the bottom of the prepared dish. Spread generously with melted butter.

Sprinkle 2-3 tablespoons of the walnut mixture on the face. Repeat layers until all nuts, butter, and chips are used.

Finish with about 6 layers of edges on top. If you still have a little butter left over, spread it over the top layer.

With a very sharp knife, cut all the layers of baklava. Cut 3-4 slices lengthwise.

Then make diagonal cuts to make diamond shapes.

Bake in a 350-degree oven for 45 minutes, until golden brown and crisp.

While the baklava is baking, heat the honey in a saucepan until it comes to a boil. Add the vanilla flavor and lemon peel.

When the baklava is cooked in bread, immediately pour the honey mixture over it.

Let it cool completely in the skillet.
