Sweet, Chocolately Delicious Baklava
Getting reviews...
Ingredients
Directions
- Preheat oven to 425.
- Mix sugar, cinnamon, chopped nuts, and chocolate chips in mixing bowl.
- Melt butter in medium saucepan/
- Place one sheet of filo dough in an 11x9 pan and butter it, continuing until you have used 1/8 to 1/4 of the package (my personal preference).
- Then spread on a layer of chocolate mixture. Repeat with filo dough and chocolate until all is used.
- Cut into 1" squares. Place in oven and bake about 35 minutes (until golden brown).
- While that is baking, in a medium saucepan over medium-low, heat the honey, water, and lemon juice until it comes to a light boil. Remove from heat.
- Once your baklava is out of the oven, place the pan on a cookie sheet and immediately pour syrup mixture over. BE CAREFUL THE SYRUP WILL MOST LIKELY START TO BOIL IMMEDIATELY (sometimes overflowing onto the cookie sheet). Allow to cool, then enjoy.
- For looks I sometimes melt a few chocolate chips and drizzle them on top.
