Yes, something along those lines. I wish I could get the recipe from the Church so I could make it myself.

I read through that recipe earlier, after I originally posted and it makes me want to make it!!

I would say, just going by the pictures, that this one looks more like what I have had before...

@no4mk1t Have you ever had a greek walnut cake called karithopita?

There is a somewhat local Orthodox Greek Church that would have a Greek Bazaar like twice a year. My parents used to take us as kids and I still like to go, mostly to get pastries. And as much as I like Baklava I like the karithopita even better, at least what I have had from there. Unfortunately they have stopped carrying it during the bazaars the last few years(probably didnt sell as well as some of the other things). Guess I need to find a recipe for it and make it myself!

No, but now that you mentioned it, you have to make it and make a post. ;)

Yep, like Lay's potato chips, you can't eat just one.
It's actually a test of self control disguised as a delicious holiday treat. :p
Or you could give in to temptation and take the battery out of the scale until February. :unsure:
 
The holiday season is upon us and time to start thinking about making this again.
For those who are not bakers, you are in luck. Planet Bakery will send you some anywhere in the 48 states with free shipping.
That pistachio and walnut baklava sounds interesting. 😋
