Albaian Kadaif Dessert

I can hear you already going what on earth is that?????



Well.....If words like “aioli” make you think, “Ew, weird, clicking away now,” don’t–click away

Avoiding things that sound weird will keep you from enjoying things that taste amazing.
 

Ok,,, Easy people trust me the name is scarier than the dish....



Albanian Kadaif also called Kenafeh (Arabic: كنافة kanāfah), also spelled knafeh, kunafeh, or kunafah, is a traditional Arab cheese pastry soaked in sweet syrup thought to have originated from the city Nablus, Palestine, and popular in the eastern Mediterranean cuisines.


So basically this is a sweet pastry dessert

First things first
 Ingredients:
      Part 1
1 box shredded wheat ( cereal box size not the mega size)
1 package ground walnuts
2 cups sugar
1 cup butter softened
      Part 2 Or Syrup Section

Second things steps...
