Prepare the phyllo.
-
9
Unfold the sheets.
-
10
Measure the short end and divide this into 3 equal parts, and cut into strips which should be about 4 in width.
-
11
Stack the strips and cover with a damp cloth as the phyllo dries out very quickly.
-
12
Preheat the oven to 350 F.
-
13
Make the triangles.
-
14
Lay as many individual sheets out across your counter as you can fit and lightly brush with melted butter.
-
15
Place one heaping teaspoon of the filling mixture 1/2 from the end of the strip.
-
16
Fold the corner of the pastry over the filling to form a triangle.
-
17
Continue to fold up the strip, in triangles, until you get to the end of the strip.

Then freeze them in a bag in layers with parchment paper, freezer paper, or aluminum foil between the layers.

Bake from frozen for about 20 minutes, until golden brown (watch though, as it make take a little bit longer).
