Join us for a delightful baking class in NYC, where you’ll learn how to make your very own Kunafa cheesecake! This scrumptious Middle Eastern dessert is a beloved treat with a rich history that dates back centuries.
Guided by an expert instructor, you’ll master every step of the process, from spreading kataifi — a shredded phyllo dough — onto a pan, to layering and stuffing it with gooey cheese or a unique thickened cream called ashta.
Once baked to golden perfection, your Kunafa will be drizzled with fragrant syrup and crowned with a sprinkle of pistachios. At the end of this culinary experience, you’ll have the chance to taste your creation! Expect a satisfying crunch, a touch of sweetness, and a balanced blend of cheesy and creamy textures in every bite.
This beginner-friendly baking class is perfect for anyone looking to expand their culinary skills while learning about a delicious cultural dish!
