Directions
Nut Wedges, This is an easier version of Baklava. Posted for the Greek part of the Zaar World tour. From Better Homes and Gardens., I love these wedges. They are rich and very reminiscent of baklava. This year was my second time making them and used brown sugar in place of white, very yummy change. used prepared pie dough. For the chocolate use the microwave. I take 3/4 cup chocolate chips and 1 1/2 TBLS butter, melt them together, place this in a pastry bag and pipe it onto the cookie wedges., A great recipe! I even like it better than regular baklava, which is overpoweringly sweet for me!
