  1. Easy recipe and sweeter than expected. I made 15 mini cups as that is what was in the package. The filling makes a lot and I had enough left over to make another 10-15 mini cups. I used roasted unsalted cashews since the recipe didn't specify. Wasn't sure if these were to be served warm so I made these in the afternoon and briefly reheated before serving. The guests enjoyed and I will make again.
     
  2. These are addicting. I had to stop myself from eating them all. Kudos to you for creating this wonderful treat. Needless to say, I will certainly be making these again. I loved the flavour of the filling combined with the phyllo. Thank you so much for sharing.

I absolutly love to cook and have 3 hungry kids who love to taste test. Our house rule is you have to try something at least once before you can say you dont like it.Lots of hits and misses over the years but lots of surprise favorites too. I read cook books like novels and have been know to buy up all the cookbooks at a yard sale.I sometimes have to sneak them it to the house under the threat of getting thrown out if I bring one more in! I have been a pampered chef consultant for 4 monthes. I get to share great products and cooking tips that help make peoples lives easier. I love what I do. Z-mail me for info.
