Ingredients

1 cup finely chopped walnuts

1/4 cup sugar

1 tsp. ground cinnamon

1/4 tsp. ground nutmeg

2 pkg. (250g each) PHILADELPHIA Brick Cream Cheese, softened

1/2 cup honey, divided

1 tsp. vanilla

2 eggs

12 sheets frozen phyllo pastry, thawed, cut in half crosswise

1/2 cup butter, melted

Directions

Preheat oven to 350°F.

Mix walnuts, sugar and spices; set aside.

Beat cream cheese, 1/4 cup of the honey and the vanilla in large bowl with electric mixer on medium speed until well blended.

Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating well after each addition.

Place layers of the phyllo sheets in 13x9-inch baking pan, brushing each layer with butter and sprinkling a rounded tablespoonful of the walnut mixture over every other layer of phyllo.

Spread top with cream cheese mixture.

Bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until cream cheese mixture is set.

Heat remaining 1/4 cup honey; drizzle over baklava.

Cool to room temperature.

Cut into 20 squares to serve.

Keep phyllo sheets covered with a sheet of plastic wrap or parchment and a damp towel until ready to use

Cover with plastic wrap and store in refrigerator up to 2 days. For best flavor, remove from refrigerator about 30 minutes before serving.

As a 1st generation born Greek, I am abit skeptical. However, when it comes to dessert, I am willing to try just about anything. I'm saving this to make this Sunday!
