NOTES

Note:
You can drizzle a little honey on them just before serving if you want them to be sweeter.
You can increase the amount of sugar up to 6 or 8 tablespoon depending on your taste.
I use phyllo sheets for baklava, which are sold packaged at the markets here as they are thinner than our regular phyllo sheets. If you can’t find it, just use your regular phyllo.
