Tiropetes - cheese puffs

25 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
6 Eggs
1 pounds Feta cheese
1 pounds Large curd cottage cheese
8 ounces Cream cheese
½ cup Grated Romano cheese
½ teaspoon Nutmeg
1 tablespoon Chopped parsley
1 pounds Strudel leaves
½ pounds Butter

Directions

Combine all ingredients except strudel leaves & butter, until thoroughly mixed. Mixture will be slightly lumpy. Melt butter. Carefully cut leaves into 3 equal portions lengthwise. Refrigerate ⅔ of the leaves until needed; cover remaining third with damp towel. Remove one set of leaves & place on flat surface & butter well. Fold long sides toward middle, making strip about 2-inches wide. Butter this strip. Place 1 tablespoon of cheese mixture in bottom right hand corner of strip; fold over into triangle shape; continue folding, making sure with each fold that bottom edge is parallel with the alternate edge. Bake in 425 oven until golden brown.

Serve warm. Yield depends on making small triangles; if done correctly, this should give about 100 pieces.
