Baklava Cookies

We love baklava in our house but can't make it since my husband is diabetic and on Me to diet ,but I tried this recipe and my husband said he likes it as well or better than regular baklava. Thank you for the recipe

With walnuts, pistachios, cinnamon, and a sugar-free glaze scented with lemon zest they will be the perfect substitute to the traditional sugar-laden pastry.
