INGREDIENTS

  • Nuts and Seeds

    • 12 ounces pistachios
    • 3/4 cup pistachio cream
    • 2 tablespoons tahini

  • Dairy Products

    • 1 cup butter

  • Pastry

    • 1 (16 ounce) package phyllo dough

  • Sweeteners

    • 1 cup white sugar
    • 1/2 cup honey

  • Liquids

    • 1 cup water

STEPS

1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C) and gather all ingredients.

2

Pulse pistachios in a food processor until finely chopped. Add chocolate bar pieces and pulse again. Reserve 1/4 cup for topping.

3

Whisk tahini and pistachio cream together until combined; set aside.

4

Brush a 9x13-inch baking dish with melted butter, layer phyllo dough with butter brushed in between, creating 8 layers.

5

Drizzle half of the pistachio cream over the pastry and sprinkle half of the chopped pistachio mixture. Repeat the buttered phyllo layering and finish with remaining cream and pistachio mixture.

6

Cut into diamond or square shapes using a sharp knife and bake until golden brown and crisp, 40 to 45 minutes.

7

Prepare syrup by boiling water and sugar, then simmering with honey until syrupy, 15 to 20 minutes.

8

Pour syrup evenly over baked baklava and sprinkle with reserved pistachios. Let cool completely for 2 hours before serving.
