About



This Greek delight was found in a cook book my mother in law gave me, The Complete Step By Step Cook Book. This book has more than 800 full color recipes and as the title says with step by step instructions.

My husband took some to his Greek friend again today and just like the Baklava he simply loved this and wished that he had more.
