Konafa

This is one of my favorite desserts! You can't find it a lot here and when you do it is mad expensive.



Ingredients:
-½ cup butter
-1lb konafa
-½ cup milk
-1 lb ricotta cheese
-½ cup veg oil









Directions:
  • Defrost dough
  • Preheat oven to 450F
  • In large bowl mix dough, butter, and vegetable oil. Shred the dough as you mix.
  • Split the dough in half.
  • Place the first half in the pan you want to cook in it. Be sure to press it down and that you can't see the pan through the dough.
  • Mix the cheese and the milk.
  • Using your hands spread the cheese/milk mixture over the dough.
  • Place the remaining dough on top of the mixture.
  • Cook for 25 minutes.
  • Remove from the oven and sprinkle syrup over the entire konafa.
