These baklava bars are the BEST! The filo dough is so crispy and flaky, the filling is perfectly sweet and nutty, and the honey glaze is the perfect finishing touch. I highly recommend this recipe.

These baklava bars were a little too sweet for my taste, but they were still very good. I think I'll try using less honey next time.

I'm not usually a fan of baklava, but these bars were amazing! The filling was perfectly balanced, not too sweet or too nutty. And the filo dough was so crispy and flaky.
