    Title: Baklava Cheesecake
    Categories: Pastry, Nuts, Herbs, Cheese
    Yield: 16 servings

    12 (14" X 9") sheets phyllo
    - dough
    1/3 c Butter; melted
    1 c Finely chopped walnuts
    1/4 c Sugar
    1/2 ts Ground cinnamon
    1/4 ts Ground nutmeg
    1/8 ts Ground allspice
    16 oz Cream cheese; softened
    8 oz Mascarpone cheese
    2/3 c Honey
    1/4 c Milk
    3 tb A-P flour
    3 lg Eggs; room temp, lightly
    - beaten

    Set oven @ 425ºF/218ºC.

    Place 1 sheet phyllo dough in a greased 9" springform
    pan, pressing phyllo onto bottom and up side of pan;
    brush with butter. Layer with remaining phyllo sheets,
    brushing each layer and rotating sheets slightly to
    stagger the corners. (While working, keep unused phyllo
    covered with a damp towel to prevent it from drying
    out.) Place springform pan a 15" X 10" X 1" baking pan.

    In a small bowl, mix walnuts, sugar and spices; sprinkle
    over bottom of phyllo. Bake 5-7 minutes or until edge is
    lightly browned (side will puff). Cool in springform pan
    on a wire rack. Reduce oven setting to 325ºF/165ºC.

    In a large bowl, beat cream cheese and mascarpone cheese
    on low speed until smooth. Beat in honey, milk and
    flour. Add eggs; beat on low speed just until blended.
    Pour into crust. Return pan to baking pan.

    Bake 50-60 minutes or until center is almost set. Cool
    on a wire rack 1 hour longer. Refrigerate overnight,
    covering when completely cooled. Remove rim from pan.
