Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 oz Cream cheese, softened
- 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
- 1 Large egg
- 12 Phyllo dough sheets
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter, melted
- 2 tbsp Powdered sugar (optional for garnish)
- 0.5 cup Fresh berries (optional for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese and granulated sugar together until smooth and creamy.
Add the vanilla extract and egg to the cream cheese mixture, beating until fully combined. Set the filling aside.
Unroll the phyllo dough and cover with a damp kitchen towel to prevent it from drying out.
Take one sheet of phyllo dough and brush it lightly with melted butter. Layer a second sheet on top, also brushing with butter. Repeat until you stack 3 layers of phyllo.
Cut the stacked phyllo sheets into 6 equal squares.
Spoon about 2 tablespoons of the cheesecake filling onto the center of each phyllo square.
Gather the corners of the phyllo squares to form small bundles, pinching at the top to seal. Brush the outside of each bundle lightly with melted butter.
Place the bundles onto the prepared baking sheet and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the phyllo is golden brown and crisp.
Allow the phyllo wrapped cheesecakes to cool slightly before serving.
Dust with powdered sugar and top with fresh berries for garnish, if desired.
