Baklava: Classic Greek Phyllo Pastry Dessert

Baklava is the dish most people think Greek dessert. Baklava is a perennial favorite, a classic Greek pastry made with flaky phyllo dough that is layered with a cinnamon-spiced nut filling, and bathed in sweet syrup. It's crunchy and sweet and very decadent. Recipes are known to be passed down from generation to generation in different families, with slight variations in some ingredients used.
