GREEK WALNUT ROLLS
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
- Combine nuts with cinnamon, cloves and sugar. Set aside.
- Brush three phyllo leaves generously with melted butter and stack them on each other evenly. Sprinkle evenly with a thin layer of the nut-sugar mixture.
- Brush three more sheets of dough with butter, stack them and lay them over the nut mixture. Sprinkle another layer of nuts on the top sheet of dough.
- Roll lengthwise, jellyroll fashion. Brush top of roll with melted butter. Prepare two more rolls in this fashion, using the remaining sheets of dough and nut mixture.
- Cut each roll into one-inch slices. Place the slices close together, side by side, in one or more baking pans.
- Bake about 30 minutes, or until the pastry is crisp and golden brown.
- While walnut rolls bake, prepare the syrup. Combine water, sugar, and lemon slice in a small, heavy-bottom saucepan and simmer for about 10 minutes, or until a light syrup is formed.
- Pour warm syrup over walnut rolls as soon as they are taken from the oven. Serve the cookies at room temperature. Store in airtight metal cookie tins.
