  3. 3 Whisk together remaining egg yolk and water using a fork. Press a walnut piece into each cookie, then brush with egg yolk glaze.

Instructions

  1. 1 Cream butter and sugar in a large bowl with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Beat in egg, vanilla extract, and almond extract. Add flour, baking soda, and salt and beat until well incorporated. Shape dough into a disk, cover in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 2 hours, or until firm enough to roll.

  4. 4 Starting with the long side, tightly roll the dough, jelly-roll style, to form a log. Cover in plastic wrap and refrigerate until firm, about 1 hour.
  5. 5 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone mats.

Instructions

  1. 1 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Butter the bottom and sides of a 9x13-inch pan.
  2. 2 Toss walnuts and cinnamon together in a bowl and set aside.
  3. 3 Unroll phyllo dough and trim to just slightly larger than the pan so dough will run up the sides. Place 2 sheets of dough in the prepared pan and butter thoroughly. Repeat for a total of 8 sheets layered. Sprinkle about 2 tablespoons of cinnamon-walnut mixture on top. Top with 2 more sheets of dough, butter, cinnamon-walnut mixture; repeat and end with 3 sheets of dough. Butter the top of the baklava.
  4. 4 Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Leave oven on.
  5. 5 Meanwhile, combine cream cheese, sugar, and flour in the bowl of an electric mixer. Beat on high power until smooth, about 1 minute. Scrape the bowl. Beat on low speed and add eggs 1 at a time, beating about 15 seconds after each. Scrape bowl. Add lemon juice and beat on high speed until well blended, about 1 minute. Pour mixture over baked baklava crust in the pan while crust is still hot.
  6. 6 Bake in the hot oven until set, 20 to 25 minutes. Cool to room temperature, about 1 hour.
  7. 7 Cut cooled cheesecake into 12 servings.
  8. 8 Combine water and sugar in a saucepan and bring to a boil until melted, about 5 minutes. Add honey and vanilla extract and simmer for 20 minutes. Drizzle hot sauce over the cooled cake, making sure to get in between the slices.
  9. 9 Refrigerate uncovered or only lightly covered with aluminum foil; a tight seal will make it soggy.

Instructions

  1. 1 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Place the walnuts on a rimmed sheet pan.
  2. 2 Toast walnuts in the preheated oven until fragrant, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer the walnuts to a plate and set aside.
  3. 3 Whisk flour, baking powder, and salt together in a medium bowl.
  4. 4 Add brown sugar and butter to the bowl of a stand mixer; cream on medium-low speed until combined. Increase speed to medium-high and beat until light and creamy, about 2 minutes. Reduce speed to medium-low and add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition and using a rubber spatula to scrape the bottom and sides of the bowl as needed.
  5. 5 Stop the mixer, add the flour mixture, and mix on low until flour is nearly incorporated. Add walnuts and continue to mix until there aren't any streaks of flour in the cookie dough.
  6. 6 Place about 1/2 of the dough in the center of a piece of parchment or waxed paper and use the paper to help you shape the dough into a 2-inch wide log. Roll the log back and forth so the sides are nicely rounded. Repeat with the remaining dough to make a second log. Set the parchment-wrapped logs on a baking sheet and freeze them until hard, about 2 hours.
  7. 7 Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  8. 8 Unwrap a log and place it on a cutting board. Use a sharp knife to slice the log crosswise into the thinnest possible rounds without having the cookies crumble apart, about 1/8- to 1/16-inch thick. Set the cookies 1 1/2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet.
  9. 9 Bake in the preheated oven until golden around the edges, 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool for 5 minutes before using a spatula to transfer the cookies to a wire rack.
