Baklava Cheesecake

"A decadent combination of two of my favorite desserts: cheesecake with a baklava crust. I call it cheeseklava! This is best made a day before serving."

Ingredients :

• Baklava Crust:
• 6 ounces chopped walnuts
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/2 (16 ounce) package frozen phyllo pastry, thawed
• 1/2 cup melted butter, or as needed
• Cheesecake Filling:
• 2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
• 3/4 cup white sugar
• 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 2 eggs
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• Sauce:
• 1 cup water
• 1 cup white sugar
• 1/2 cup honey
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions :

Prep : 30M	Cook : 12M	Ready in : 2H35M

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Butter the bottom and sides of a 9x13-inch pan.
• Toss walnuts and cinnamon together in a bowl and set aside.
• Unroll phyllo dough and trim to just slightly larger than the pan so dough will run up the sides. Place 2 sheets of dough in the prepared pan and butter thoroughly. Repeat for a total of 8 sheets layered. Sprinkle about 2 tablespoons of cinnamon-walnut mixture on top. Top with 2 more sheets of dough, butter, cinnamon-walnut mixture; repeat and end with 3 sheets of dough. Butter the top of the baklava.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Leave oven on.
• Meanwhile, combine cream cheese, sugar, and flour in the bowl of an electric mixer. Beat on high power until smooth, about 1 minute. Scrape the bowl. Beat on low speed and add eggs 1 at a time, beating about 15 seconds after each. Scrape bowl. Add lemon juice and beat on high speed until well blended, about 1 minute. Pour mixture over baked baklava crust in the pan while crust is still hot.
• Bake in the hot oven until set, 20 to 25 minutes. Cool to room temperature, about 1 hour.
• Cut cooled cheesecake into 12 servings.
• Combine water and sugar in a saucepan and bring to a boil until melted, about 5 minutes. Add honey and vanilla extract and simmer for 20 minutes. Drizzle hot sauce over the cooled cake, making sure to get in between the slices.
• Refrigerate uncovered or only lightly covered with aluminum foil; a tight seal will make it soggy.

Notes :

• Don't feel pressured to use all the butter. Similarly, you may not need all the sauce. I like mine gooey.
• I use a pastry bag to distribute the filling evenly, requiring as little adjustment as possible so as to protect the phyllo.
