Oreo Baklava Chocolate Phyllo (Print Version)

Irresistible dessert with phyllo, Oreos, chocolate chips, and rich syrup, crispy and full of flavor.

# Ingredients:

→ Pastry

01 - 1 package phyllo dough, thawed
02 - 1 cup unsalted butter, melted

→ Filling

03 - 2 cups crushed Oreo cookies
04 - 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips

→ Chocolate Syrup

05 - 1 cup granulated sugar
06 - 1 cup water
07 - 1/2 cup chocolate syrup or 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
08 - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

# Steps:

01 - Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
02 - Arrange 6 to 8 sheets of phyllo dough in the baking dish, brushing each lightly with melted butter.
03 - Distribute a generous layer of crushed Oreo cookies over the buttered phyllo sheets and scatter mini chocolate chips on top.
04 - Place another 6 to 8 sheets of phyllo, each brushed with butter, over the filling. Continue alternating layers of Oreos and phyllo until the cookies are used up, concluding with a thick top layer of buttered phyllo.
05 - Slice the layered pastry into squares or diamonds using a sharp knife. Transfer to the oven and bake for 35 to 40 minutes until the surface is golden and crisp.
06 - While the pastry bakes, combine sugar, water, and chocolate syrup (or cocoa powder) in a saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat, then simmer for 10 minutes. Stir in the vanilla extract and remove from heat.
07 - Pour the warm chocolate syrup evenly over the baked pastry immediately after removing from the oven. Allow it to cool completely so the layers absorb the syrup before serving.

# Notes:

01 - Ensure phyllo sheets are fully thawed and handle gently to prevent tearing. To maintain crispness, brush each layer of phyllo lightly and evenly with butter.
