    In a small saucepan, combine sugar and water over medium heat, stirring occasionally until the sugar dissolves. Add honey and whole cloves, then stir to mix.

    In a food processor, pulse the pistachios, walnuts, and hazelnuts until coarsely chopped. Transfer to a large mixing bowl, then add sugar, chopped chocolate, cinnamon, and ground cloves. Mix well to combine, then set aside.
  4. Prepare the Phyllo Pastry

    Unroll the thawed phyllo pastry and place the sheets between two clean kitchen towels to prevent them from drying out and breaking while you assemble the baklava.
  5. Assemble the Baklava

    Grease a 23 cm x 33 cm x 5 cm (9” x 13” x 2”) baking pan with melted butter. Lay a sheet of phyllo in the pan, folding it if needed to fit. Brush the top with melted butter. Repeat the process until one-third of the phyllo sheets are used, brushing each layer with butter to keep it crisp and flaky.
  6. Add the Nut Mixture

    Evenly spread half of the nut mixture over the layered phyllo. Add another one-third of the phyllo sheets, brushing each layer with melted butter. Spread the remaining nut mixture on top, ensuring an even layer. Finish with the remaining phyllo sheets, brush each with melted butter, including the top layer for a golden, crispy finish.
  7. Cut and Bake the Baklava

    Use a sharp knife to cut the pastry into 24 diamond-shaped pieces (or up to 36 smaller ones). Place the baking dish on the middle rack of the oven and bake for 35 to 40 minutes, until the top turns golden brown and crispy.
  8. Pour the Syrup Over the Baklava

    Once the baklava is out of the oven, immediately pour the cooled syrup evenly over the hot pastry. This allows the syrup to soak in and give the baklava its signature texture.
  9. Cool and Serve

    Let the baklava sit for at least one hour before serving. Once cooled, cut along the marked lines and garnish each piece with chopped pistachios. Enjoy!
