This baklava recipe is a fail. The filo dough was too thick and the nuts were not toasted enough. The honey syrup was also too sweet.

I'm not a fan of baklava, but this recipe changed my mind. The baklava was so delicious and addictive. I couldn't stop eating it!

This is the best baklava recipe I've ever tried! The baklava was perfectly crispy and flaky. The honey syrup was also the perfect sweetness.

This recipe is a great starting point for making baklava. I made a few changes to the recipe, such as using a different type of nuts and adding a little bit of cinnamon. The baklava turned out delicious!

The baklava was good, but it wasn't anything special. I've had better baklava before. I wouldn't recommend this recipe to anyone.

This baklava recipe was a disaster. The filo dough was too thick and the nuts were burnt. I'm not sure what went wrong, but I won't be trying this recipe again.

I'm not a big fan of baklava, but I decided to try this recipe anyway. I'm glad I did! The baklava was surprisingly light and flaky. The honey syrup was also not too sweet.

I've made baklava many times before, but this recipe is by far the best. The instructions were easy to follow and the baklava turned out delicious. The pistachio filling was especially flavorful.

This baklava recipe is a keeper! The layers of filo dough, nuts, and honey syrup were perfectly balanced. I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out perfectly. My family loved it!
