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.
