Simply put….I could live on these and be plenty happy. My mom used to make these for holiday parties and she would double the batch so that we could have our own plate. I made some over the holidays…and I know how you all love a good appetizer…so I had to share. The filling is best made a day ahead. It will congeal in the fridge making it much easier to stuff the little filo cups.

These are perfect for a super bowl feast :)
