Top 100 Five-Ingredient Dinners

I was really interested in making Kunefee. I lived in Turkey for 5 years and have enjoyed this dessert very much. I saved this recipe because it’s baked and not cooked over the stove, the traditional way. I started making the syrup a day ahead of time because from the online research it needs to be cold before you pour it on “individual slices only”right out of the oven. From reading the reviews on this post no one mentioned anything about the syrup not getting thick. I threw my syrup out and did a lot of research for the right ingredients. The traditional ingredients are 1 cup of water, 2 cups of sugar, 1 tablespoon lemon juice. Add Rose when syrup is done. You heat it on medium until sugar is dissolved and when it comes to a nice gentle boil, simmer for 12 min. Then you will notice it has thickened nicely. Traditional Kunefee does not require milk, confectioner sugar or nutmeg. So I made some adjustments to my recipe and I was very pleased with the results.
