Cheese Kunafa is a rich and indulgent Middle Eastern dessert that combines layers of crispy, golden-brown shredded phyllo pastry (kataifi) with a gooey, melted cheese filling. It is soaked in a fragrant sugar syrup infused with rose water or orange blossom water, adding a subtle floral sweetness. The contrast between the crisp pastry and the creamy, stretchy cheese makes it an irresistible treat. Often garnished with crushed pistachios, it’s a perfect dessert for special occasions or to end a meal on a luxurious note.
