Instructions
Make Phyllo Cups or Thaw pre-made Phyllo Cups
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (177C).
- Unfold the Phyllo Pastry and brush with melted butter one layer at a time. Keep a piece of plastic wrap and damp tea towel over the remaining sheets of phyllo to avoid drying out. Continue layering phyllo pastry and brushing with melted butter until you have 5 sheets of dough.
- Cut the pastry into 2-inch squares and press into a mini-muffin tin. Bake for 5-7 minutes and cool in the pan for 5 mins before transferring to a cooling rack for 10 more minutes.
No Bake Cheesecake Filling
- In a medium sized bowl, beat the cream cheese on high speed until light and fluffy.
- Add the vanilla and powdered sugar to the cream cheese and beat on low (or you will cover yourself and the kitchen in powdered sugar) until incorporated, then increase to high speed until light and fluffy.
- Place the cream cheese mixture into a piping bag and fill the baked and cooled phyllo cups. Chill in fridge 10 minutes to set.
- Top with fresh berries, mint, and additional powdered sugar.
