This twist on baklava turns what could be a big project into a simple— and delicious—sweet. Traditional baklava takes quite a bit of time, requires lots of tricky layering of phyllo, and a lot of butter. This recipe cuts time and fat by using store-bought mini phyllo shells instead. Start with making a simple filling of nuts and chocolate flavored with orange zest, and cinnamon, then use a spoon to scoop the filling up and fill the shells. A quick bake in the oven to warm things up, and snacks - or dessert - is ready.
