Ingredients
- 5 heets phyllo pastry
- ¼ cup unsalted butter melted, more as needed
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F.
- If phyllo dough is frozen, completely thaw it according to package directions.
- Lay one sheet of dough out and brush with a light coating of butter. Top with a second sheet and brush with butter.
- Repeat with remaining dough until you have 5 layers.
- Cut into 3.5" x 3.5" squares. Gently press into a mini muffin tin. Poke the bottom of the dough with a fork to allow steam to escape.
- Bake 7 minutes. Remove from the oven and gently press the center using a small spoon. Return the cups to the oven and continue baking 4-6 minutes or until golden and crisp.
- Remove from the oven and immediately remove from the muffin pan.
Notes
- Phyllo cups are very delicate and should be stored in a single layer in a hard container. They can be made up to 1 week ahead of time and refrigerated.
- Bake and cool the phyllo cups before using. If using a chilled filling (like pudding) fill just before serving.
- If your cups will be warmed, filled with the hot filling and bake at 350°F for about 10-12 minutes (a couple of minutes more or less depending on the filling).
- Fillings can be moist but ensure they're not too watery so the shells don't get soggy. Ingredients that release a lot of liquid (like mushrooms) and meats should be pre-cooked.
- Nutrition information is an estimate per unfilled cup.
- Thaw dough in the fridge overnight.
- Handle the dough very gently, it is fragile.
- Gently unfold the dough and remove a single sheet. Lightly cover the remaining with plastic wrap while you're working with each sheet so it doesn't dry out.
