Deliciously Simple BAKLAVA Box Recipe

Omg. This turned out delicious! I guess when it comes to making Baklava, you can never go too wrong. But who am I to say? I'm no expert. You don't want it too complicated though and this recipe was perfect to follow! Usually I try to avoid recipes off packages because more often than not, they don't turn out as good as you'd expect them to be - at least that's what I keep hearing.

I'm sure there are many great Baklava recipes out there but I took this one to work (like everyone always writes) and EVERYONE actually loved it (like everyone always writes). Maybe work is the worst place to taste-test your recipes? Anyways, it was all annihilated within a few hours.

The phyllo sheet brand was called 'Amira' but of course you can use any brand you want. I included some conversions for us Canadian folks.
