Ingredients
- 2 oz cream cheese
- 4 oz feta cheese
- 1 TBSP honey
- ⅛ tsp lemon zest
- 3-4 large strawberries (hulled + chopped)
- 15 phyllo shells
- fresh mint or basil to garnish
- 2-3 TBSP honey for drizzling
- 2 -3 TBSP balsamic glaze for drizzling
Instructions
- For best results, allow feta and cream cheese to reach room temperature before you begin.
- Crumble feta into the bowl of a food processor and pulse until only itty bitty crumbs remain.
- Add cream cheese and honey and blend until creamy, scraping down the sides if needed. If you'd like a bit of citrusy punch to your whipped feta, add 1/8 tsp lemon zest when you add your honey. It does add a bit of tartness but I love the punch of lemon! If needed give it a taste and add additional lemon/honey to taste.
- Place filling in a small plastic bag (or piping bag) and use a baking spatula to press the mixture into one of the corners. cut the corner of the bag and pipe filling into your phyllo shells. Top with chopped strawberries and garnish with a sprig of mint or some fresh chopped basil.
- I like to drizzle both honey and balsamic glaze on mine - so good!
Cup of Yum
Notes
- Feel free to pick up some balsamic glaze at the grocery store (you can find it near the balsamic vinegar and comes in a few tasty varieties) or make your own.
- For homemade balsamic glaze, mix 1 cup of your favorite balsamic vinegar with 1/4 cup brown sugar in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil, then simmer until reduced by half, approx. 20 minutes. Sauce will thicken a bit more as it cools. Cool and store in the fridge for all your drizzling needs!
