Notes
*Feel free to use any nut combination you like. We loved it as is but if you prefer only walnuts you can omit pistachios or vice versa.
Wondering if you can make these w/out cutting them into quarters and leave them whole?
Hi Nancy,
Yes, you don’t have to cut them. Be sure to let us know if you give this a try!

Can this be served at room temperature?
Absolutely!
Brought this to a Women’s group for a desert and it was devoured in seconds flat. Everyone loved it. Am doubling the recipe to take to a Labor Day party and I know my family will love it. It’s like making and easy Baklava with no phyllo. Delish!
That is amazing! So glad everyone loved it!
