QUICK AND EASY BAKLAVA SQUARES
I love baklava but rarely indulge because it takes so much time to make. Then a friend of mine gave me this simple recipe. I've made it for family, friends and co-workers-they can't get enough. I'm always asked to bring these squares to special gatherings and parties, and I even give them as gifts during the holidays. —Paula Marchesi, Lenhartsville, Pennsylvania

EASY BAKLAVA
This recipe was given to me years ago by a friend who was known as the "go to person" for desserts at work. It does takes some short cuts & purists may not like that. But it sure does taste good & it is SO much easier than traditional baklava. I prefer this recipe to the ones with honey.

BAKLAVA BARS
This interesting twist on the Mediterranean classic is packed with flavors that scream fall. The honey. The toasted nuts. The butter and the spices. There's nothing that's not delicious about this dessert. It's easy to make, quick to put together and the perfect guilty pleasure for any fall day.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Butter a 9x13 inch baking dish.
- Toss together cinnamon and nuts. Unroll phyllo and cut whole stack in half to fit the dish. Cover phyllo with a damp cloth while assembling the baklava, to keep it from drying out.
- Place two sheets of phyllo in the bottom of the prepared dish. Brush generously with butter. Sprinkle 2 to 3 tablespoons of the nut mixture on top. Repeat layers until all ingredients are used, ending with about 6 sheets of phyllo. Using a sharp knife, cut baklava (all the way through to the bottom of the dish) into four long rows, then (nine times) diagonally to make 36 diamond shapes.
- Bake in preheated oven until golden brown and crisp, about 50 minutes.
- While baklava is baking, combine sugar and water in a small saucepan over medium heat and bring to a boil. Stir in honey, vanilla and lemon or orange zest; reduce heat and simmer 20 minutes.
- Remove the baklava from the oven and immediately spoon the syrup over it. Let cool completely before serving. Store uncovered.

BAKLAVA-STYLE CHEESECAKE BARS
When I think of baklava, I think of flaky, crispy pastry and sticky honey-lemon syrup with crunchy nuts. These cheesecake bars hit all those notes and more! The added tang of the cream cheese layer only works to enhance the bright tang from the lemon in the honey syrup. Keep these refrigerated for up to 3 days.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line the bottom and sides of a 9x13-inch baking dish with parchment paper, allowing excess to hang over sides. Lightly grease with cooking spray.
- Place 1 sheet phyllo dough in the prepared pan, pressing phyllo into the bottom; brush with some butter. Layer with remaining 11 phyllo sheets, brushing each layer with butter. Keep unused phyllo covered with a damp paper towel to prevent it from drying out while working.
- Bake in the preheated oven until light golden brown, about 5 minutes. Place on a wire rack and let cool slightly, 10 to 15 minutes.
- While phyllo cools, reduce oven temperature to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
- Beat cream cheese with an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment on medium speed until smooth, 2 to 3 minutes. Add sugar and vanilla extract; beat on medium speed until smooth and creamy, about 2 minutes, stopping occasionally to scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed. Spread in an even layer over cooled phyllo.
- Bake in the preheated oven until filling has set, 35 to 40 minutes. Let cool in the pan on a wire rack for 15 minutes. Refrigerate until completely cooled, about 45 minutes more.
- Meanwhile, bring honey and water to a boil in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to medium and simmer, stirring occasionally, until thickened and syrupy, about 15 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in walnuts, pistachios, and lemon zest until combined. Let cool to room temperature, about 45 minutes.
- Spoon over cooled cheesecake. Using excess parchment, lift cheesecake out of the pan, and slice into 2x2-inch bars.
