Divide the dough into 4 parts. Roll out each part on the size of the form as thin as possible.

Lay out a layer of dough in the form and spread evenly to 1 of the 3 parts of the filling.

Then each piece cut into diamonds.

Allow the baklava to cool. Cut it to the end portions on the pan and place on a platter for serving. Bon appetit! Invite your guests, brew tea and flavored varnish baklava!!!
