Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Lightly spray a baking sheet with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
Lay out a single sheet of phyllo pastry on a clean surface and spray lightly with cooking spray. Layer another sheet on top and repeat until all six sheets are stacked.
Cut the stacked phyllo sheets into 12 even squares using a sharp knife or a pizza cutter.
Place the phyllo squares onto the prepared baking sheet and gently press each square into a muffin tin to form a cup shape. Bake for 8-10 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from oven and allow to cool completely before filling.
While the phyllo cups cool, prepare the strawberry cream. Start by slicing 150 grams of strawberries into small pieces and setting them aside.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the low-fat cream cheese, Greek yogurt, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Whisk together until smooth and creamy.
Gently fold the sliced strawberries into the cream mixture. Taste and add the honey if additional sweetness is desired.
Once the phyllo cups are cool, spoon the strawberry cream mixture into each cup until just filled to the rim.
Slice the remaining strawberries and place a slice on top of each filled pastry. Garnish with mint leaves, if desired.
Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 2 hours before serving for best results.
