These were a bit too salty for my taste. I think I'll use less bacon next time.

I'm not a fan of phyllo dough, but I thought I'd give these a try. I was pleasantly surprised! The phyllo dough was flaky and crispy, and the filling was creamy and flavorful. I'll definitely be making these again, even though I don't like phyllo dou

These were okay. The filling was a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll try adding some Old Bay seasoning next time.

I've made these several times now and they're always a hit. They're so easy to make and they taste amazing. I love that I can make them ahead of time and just pop them in the oven when I'm ready to serve them.

I'm not a fan of crab, but I thought I'd give these a try. I was pleasantly surprised! The filling was creamy and flavorful, and the phyllo dough was perfectly crispy. I'll definitely be making these again, even though I don't like crab.

These were a disaster! The phyllo dough was too thick and the filling was too runny. I ended up throwing them away.

These were a bit too rich for my taste, but my husband loved them. I think next time I'll try using less butter in the filling.

These were so easy to make and they turned out great! I used imitation crab meat and it still tasted delicious. I will definitely be making these again.
