Ingredient

1 pound chopped pecans
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
¼ cup honey
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 (1 pound) packages brown sugar substitute (such as Splenda ®)
2 cups sugar substitute (such as Splenda)
1 cup evaporated milk
¼ cup butter
1 (16 ounce) package frozen phyllo dough, thawed
¼ cup all-purpose flour, or as needed
2 tablespoons confectioners’ sugar for dusting

Directions

Step 1: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a rimmed baking sheet or jelly roll pan.

Step 2: Stir the pecans, cinnamon, and nutmeg together in a bowl until evenly blended. Drizzle in the honey and vanilla, mixing well.

Step 3: Place the brown sugar substitute, white sugar substitute, evaporated milk, and butter in a pan, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer, stirring frequently, until mixture thickens, 12 to 15 minutes. Gradually stir in the pecan mixture. Remove from heat.

Step 4: Unroll 3 sheets of phyllo and place in the prepared baking pan. Dust lightly with flour. Spoon a thin layer of the pecan-sugar mixture over the phyllo sheets. Cover with 3 more phyllo sheets, dust with flour, and spoon the pecan-sugar mixture over the phyllo. Repeat three more times ending with phyllo sheets on top, and using all the phyllo and pecan-sugar mixture to make a stack about 1 inch high.

Step 5: Bake in preheated oven until top is golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes. Cool completely before dusting with confectioners’ sugar, and cutting into 2 inch squares.
Enjoy !
