Baklava Cheesecakem

INGREDIENTS

For the Pistachio Filling

• 120g half chopped, half ground pistachios
• 4 tablespoons powdered sugar
• 4 tablespoons melted butter

For the Cheesecake Filling

• 750g drained quark cheese, preferably 20% fat
• 4 medium-sized eggs
• 160g sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 100g melted butter
• 150ml Whipped cream
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch
• 1 tablespoon sour cream
• 1 heaping teaspoon flour

For the Baklava Layers

• 12 baklava pastry sheets
• Butter

For the Baklava Topping

• 80g sugar
• 80ml water
• 1 teaspoon lemon juice

METHOD

1. To make the cheesecake filling, beat the eggs and sugar until creamy. Add melted butter, cornstarch, and cream, and mix well. Then add the drained quark cheese, vanilla extract, sour cream, and flour, and mix until there are no lumps.
2. Take a round baking pan and brush it with melted butter. Take one of the thin pastry sheets and place it on top, so that the sides are well covered and hang out slightly. Brush with butter and place another pastry sheet on top. Repeat this process six times. Bake in the oven for 5 minutes. Combine the chopped or ground pistachios (walnuts also work) with powdered sugar and melted butter.
3. Spread the mixture evenly over the cooled pastry, pressing lightly with a fork. Then pour the liquid cheesecake filling over it. Finally, cut 6 Baklava pastry sheets into a round shape, oil them like the bottom, and place them on top of the liquid cheesecake filling.
4. Bake at 180°C for about 60-65 minutes, until golden brown. Allow to cool completely in the refrigerator overnight or for several hours until the filling is set. Finally, lightly drizzle the Baklava layers with the topping (to be added by you).
5. Place the sugar, water, and cinnamon stick in a pot and bring to a boil. Let simmer for about 5 minutes until the sugar has completely dissolved. Once the Baklava Cheesecake is out of the oven, pour the topping evenly over the top of the cake. Allow the cake to cool completely before serving.
6. Enjoy the delicious Baklava Cheesecake!
