Steps:
- Crust: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter a 12-by-8-inch rectangular tart pan with a removable bottom. Place phyllo on a work surface and cover with plastic wrap.
- Working with one sheet of phyllo at a time, use a pastry brush to coat one side with butter. Sprinkle with 1 1/2 teaspoons granulated sugar and fold sheet in half crosswise; butter the top. Transfer sheet, buttered-side up, onto half of prepared pan, leaving a 1/2-inch overhang. Repeat with a second sheet, butter, and granulated sugar, adding new sheet to other side of pan. Repeat process, buttering and sugaring phyllo, folding it over, and laying it in pan so sheets overlap in a random pattern as you build up a crust that extends all the way around the pan. Fold and ruffle edges to create an even border. Place pan on a parchment-lined rimmed baking sheet. Bake until light brown, 10 to 15 minutes.
- Filling: Meanwhile, pulse hazelnuts, brown sugar, flour, and salt in a food processor until very finely ground. Pulse in butter and ginger until smooth. Pulse in eggs until smooth.
- Spread filling in an even layer over warm crust (fill crust immediately after it is out of the oven); top with berries. Bake until filling is puffed, set, and golden brown around the fruit, 40 to 50 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature, sprinkled with confectioners' sugar. Tart is best eaten the day it's made.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400°F. Place a sheet of phyllo on a flat surface such as a cutting board; spray lightly with spray and sprinkle with 1 tbsp sugar. Cover with another sheet of phyllo. Repeat three times, finishing with spray and sugar. Using a pizza cutter or a very sharp knife, cut the phyllo into 3-inch squares. Place each square in a cup on a muffin tin, pressing in gently and fanning phyllo layers so corners don't overlap. Bake 7 to 10 minutes or until golden. Whip yogurt in a small bowl. Fold in Neufchâtel and vanilla (and liquor, if desired). Cover and refrigerate 10 minutes. After cups have cooled, remove them from muffin tin. Add 1 tbsp yogurt mixture to each cup. Top with fruit and serve. (You can also mix fruit directly into yogurt mixture.)

MINI CHOCOLATE-RASPBERRY PHYLLO TARTS
Delicate layers of golden phyllo turn a raspberry brownie-like filling into a dessert special enough for a dinner party. Using store-bought phyllo sheets and an easy brownie batter means these treats come together quickly. I love the pop of color a garnish of fresh raspberries gives, but a small scoop of vanilla ice cream would be just as fantastic.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- For the pastry shells: Use a pastry brush to brush one sheet of phyllo with melted butter. Top with another sheet and brush with butter and repeat for a total of 4 layers. Top with the remaining sheet of phyllo but do not brush the top with butter.
- Use the remaining melted butter to brush the insides of 6 cups of a standard 12-cup muffin pan, leaving every other cup empty.
- Use a pizza cutter or sharp knife to cut the stack of phyllo sheets into 6 squares, each about 4-by-4 inches. Ease each square into a buttered muffin cup, pressing gently to line the cup and allowing the edges to fold in. Refrigerate while you make the batter.
- For the batter: Microwave the chocolate chips and butter in a medium microwave-safe bowl in 20 second intervals, stirring between each interval, until smooth, about 60 seconds. Whisk in the sugar, vanilla and salt. Whisk in the egg until smooth, then whisk the mixture vigorously for 20 seconds. Whisk in the almond flour until combined.
- Divide the batter between the phyllo-lined cups. Place a heaping teaspoon of jam in the center of each cup and swirl with a toothpick. Bake until a clean toothpick inserted near the center comes out with moist crumbs, 34 to 38 minutes.
- Cool the tarts in the pan for 10 minutes before carefully transferring them to a cooling rack to cool completely. Dust each tart with powdered sugar and top with a few fresh raspberries before serving.
GRILLED FRUIT PHYLLO TART
This tart was a hit at my friend's baby shower. It reminds me of a fruit salad that my mother used to make with cream cheese and whipped topping. Everyone loved the flaky crust, and the bright colors make it a pretty addition to any spread. -Laura McAllister, Morganton, North Carolina

Steps:
- 1. Add to the room temp cream cheese, the juice of 1 whole lemon and 1 can of sweetened condensed milk. Beat until no lumps and creamy and airy.
- 2. Baked the phyllo shells, approximately 4-5 mins. Allow to cool then fill with the mixture above.
- 3. Top all the shells with any fruit mixture you choose. I used what fruit I had on hand but fruit in season would be great as well. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.
Tips:
- To ensure the phyllo pastry doesn't dry out, keep it covered with a damp cloth or plastic wrap while working.
- When brushing the phyllo pastry with butter, use a pastry brush to evenly distribute the butter and prevent the pastry from becoming soggy.
- To prevent the tart from becoming too brown, keep an eye on it while baking and cover it with foil if necessary.
- For a crispier crust, pre-bake the phyllo pastry before adding the filling.
- To make a gluten-free tart, use gluten-free phyllo pastry.
