Baklava with tahini halva

A filling of halva and walnuts instead of the classic one — softer and more fragrant.

Ingredients

• 1 packet of filo pastry
• 300 g of tahini halva
• 2 cups of ground walnuts
• butter for brushing
• for the syrup: 2 cups of sugar, 2 cups of water, vanilla

Preparation

1. Crumble the halva by hand and mix it with the ground walnuts.
2. Layer the sheets in pairs, brushing each with melted butter, spread the filling and roll up.
3. Arrange the rolls in a greased tin and bake until golden.
4. Boil the sugar, water and vanilla for about ten minutes and let the syrup cool completely.
5. Pour the cold syrup over the hot baklava and leave it for a few hours to soak in.
