Use crushed graham crackers, butter, and honey to form a firm base. Press the mixture into a pan and bake until golden for a delicious, crunchy foundation.
1. Gather Ingredients
Blend cream cheese, sugar, eggs, and vanilla for a smooth, creamy texture. This mixture creates the rich, velvety heart of your Baklava Cheesecake.
2. Make the Cheesecake Filling
Brush thin phyllo sheets with butter and stack them over the cheesecake. This creates the signature crisp layers, adding texture and an authentic touch.
3. Layer with Phyllo Dough
Combine chopped pistachios and walnuts with cinnamon and honey. Spread this sweet, spiced mixture between the phyllo layers for extra flavor.
4. Add Nutty Filling
Slowly bake at a low temperature to ensure an even, creamy texture. The top turns golden, and the flavors blend into a perfect mix of crispy and creamy.
5. Bake to Perfection
Pour warm honey syrup over the baked cheesecake, letting it soak into the layers. This step enhances the sweetness and ties all flavors together beautifully.
6. Drizzle with Honey Syrup
Let the Baklava Cheesecake cool, then refrigerate for a few hours. Slice and serve this indulgent treat, impressing guests with its unique texture and taste.
7. Chill and Serve
