Categories     Cheese

Time 20m

Yield 12 appetizers, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 ounces feta cheese
4 ounces neufchatel cheese, softened or 4 ounces cream cheese
3 ounces frozen chopped spinach, drained and squeezed of all liquid (optional)
1 green onion, chopped
1 teaspoon fresh dill weed, chopped
1 cup low-sodium parmesan cheese, shredded
1 tablespoon all purpose Greek seasoning or 1 tablespoon italian seasoning
1 teaspoon butter

Steps:

  • FILLING: Mix filling ingredients in a medium bowl. Microwave on high, 30 second at a time, stirring between intervals, until cheese is melted and the filling is warm throughout. Set aside.
  • FRICO CUPS: Mix parmesan cheese and seasoning in a small bowl. In a large non-stick skillet on medium heat, melt the butter (or use non-stick cooking spray) to just coat the bottom of the pan.
  • Sprinkle 3 thin circles of cheese in a 3" circular pattern each into the pan. Cook until they have melted and formed a light golden crust, about 3 minutes. (NOTE: If you are new to making frico cups, you may want to use a small skillet, and make one at a time).
  • Carefully lift and turn the layer of cheese with a spatula and cook until lightly golden on the 2nd side, about 1/2 a minute.
  • Immediately remove the frico from the pan and shape it by laying it over an inverted mini muffin tin.
  • Allow to cool slightly before filling. Fill with the cheese filling and serve immediately.

The phyllo dough was a bit too thick for my liking. I think I'll try using a thinner dough next time.

These were a bit too greasy for my taste. I think I'll try baking them next time instead of frying them.
