Directions:1. Bring cheeses to room temperature. Lightly brush one sheet of phylio dough with some of the melted butter. Place another heat of phylio on top of the first sheet and brush with butter. Repeat with remaining phylio & butter. Cut phylio stack lengthwise into 3 18-inch-long-strips. Cut each strip crosswise into 6 rectangles. 2. Press each rectangles gently into a 1 3/4 inch muffin cup, pleating as needed to fit. Bake in a 350º oven for 8 - 10 min. or until golden brown. Cool for 5 min. in pan. Remove from pan; cool completely on a wire rack. 3. Meanwhile, for filling in a small mixing bowl beat cream cheese, cheddar cheese, salmon, dill weed, and lemon-pepper seasoning with a electric mixer until combined. Pipe mixture into cooled phylio cups using tip with a 1/4 - 3/8 inch opening, or spoon a scant 1 T. of mixture into each cup. Garnish with fresh dill, parsley or thyme. NOTE: Prepare phylio cups and filling ahead. Fill phylio cups: cover and chill for 1 - 2 hours before serving! |
