Ingredients
Pistachios – 1 cup
Cinnamon – 1 tablespoon (ground)
Cloves – ½ teaspoon (ground)
Chèvre Cheese – 2 tablespoons
Honey – ¼ cup for filling and more to drizzle after cooked
Phyllo dough – 6 sheets
Butter – about 6 tablespoons melted
Orange zest
Instructions
Preheat oven to 325.
Crush nuts, and spices together. Add cheese and honey, and blend.
Brush melted butter lightly across 3 layers of filo dough.
Place half of the filling in a log at one end of the sheets. Roll the end over, brush with butter, continue rolling and brushing until the roll is complete. Make small diagonal slices across the top of the roll, taking care not to cut all the way through. Baste again with butter.
Bake until the crust is golden, about 25-minutes
Drizzle more honey across the top while still warm, grate orange zest. Cool, and slice the remainder of the way through.
