Greek dessert?

Question

I'm looking for the name (and eventually for a recipe) of a Greek dessert that I've eaten before. The name was distinct, I just can't remember it. It has honey and almonds and they were cut into little bars. They were very rich and filling, had a consistency like that of a very compressed cake and was sticky with the honey.

And no, it isn't Baklava.
