Cheese triangles

20 servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
1 cup Shredded Jack Cheese, Or:
Cottage Cheese
2 Eggs, Well Beaten
½ cup Chopped Parsley
1 teaspoon Salt
10 Sheets Phyllo Pastry
1 cup Unsalted Butter, Melted

Directions

Combine cheese, eggs, parsley and salt and mix well. Cut each sheet of phyllo dough in halves, working with one sheet at a time. Keep rest of pastry covered with damp towel until ready to use. Brush with butter and fold each half twice vertically to form narrow strip. Place about 1 tablespoon cheese mixture at one end of each strip. Fold one corner across filling to form triangle. Brush with more butter. Continue folding in triangles, flag-style, and brushing with butter. Place triangles on baking sheets and bake at 350øF until pastry is golden, about 15 to 20 minutes.
