Ingredients

• 8 sheets phyllo pastry sheets
• 100 grams melted butter
• 200 grams cream cheese
• 150 grams feta cheese
• 100 grams shredded mozzarella cheese
• 1 large egg
• 2 tablespoons chopped parsley
• 0.25 teaspoons salt
• 0.25 teaspoons black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a mixing bowl, combine cream cheese, feta cheese, shredded mozzarella, egg, parsley, salt, and black pepper. Mix until you have a smooth filling.

Step 3

Unroll the phyllo pastry sheets and cover them with a damp cloth to prevent drying out.

Step 4

Take one sheet of phyllo pastry and brush it lightly with melted butter. Fold it lengthwise into a long strip about 3 inches wide.

Step 5

Place a tablespoon of the cheese filling at the bottom of the strip. Fold the pastry over the filling to form a triangle, then continue folding upwards in a triangular pattern until the strip is fully wrapped around the filling.

Step 6

Brush the outside of the triangle lightly with more melted butter and place it on the prepared baking sheet.

Step 7

Repeat the process with the remaining phyllo sheets and cheese filling.

Step 8

Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the triangles are golden brown and crispy.

Step 9

Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Serve warm as an appetizer or snack.
