Hey guys! It’s Mandy from Mandy’s Recipe Box back with a yummy cookie recipe.

Have you ever even seen how they make Baklava? I’m pretty sure it takes eleventy-nine days. All the flaky layers filled with the baklava filling. Have you ever counted the layers? I’m pretty sure there are no less than 43 layers. Guys. These cookies are awesome. I mean come on. Look at the centers! You really could just grab a spoon and eat the filling alone. Or bake some pie crust strips and dip them in it. Ohhh… I just had a great idea. Anyway, give these cookies a try. The neighbors will love them as gifts. If you feel like sharing.
