I make Birthday Cakes for the girls in the office. This months birthday girl is on a diet so in lieu of a cake I made these. They are very easy and delicious. I kept the by the door in the office--every time someone went to the restroom they left with one of these in hand. Next time i would use 8oz cream cheese & 8oz sour cream. This recipe is a keeper.

I made this recipe, almost exactly as printed, for a card club snack, and came home with an empty container. I did increase the amount of cream cheese by 1 to 2 ounces. They were wonderful.

These were very easy and very tasty, however, next time I would bake the cups to crisp them up a bit more.

I did make the cheese cake phyllo cups. I think they were quick and easy and I'll be using the phyllo cups to make tarts in the future, but I think I'll use a different fruit combination.

These are really good in pastry tart shells instead of the phyllo cups. You can buy the tart shells frozen at many grocery store.
4 ounces = 125 grams for those of you who are Canadian

Does the nutritional information include the phyllo cups themselves?

The Phyllo Cups are pre baked. You can also use pre made cheesecake filling.

When I'm in a hurry, I spoon some low fat yogurt in the mini phyllo shells, add a little fresh fruit to the plate and just a light drizzel of melted chocolate over everything. It looks so impressive but takes just minutes - and tastes great too.LindaLockport, NY

I don't think anything is missing. The recipe calls for "2 packages (2.1 ounces each) frozen miniature phyllo shells, thawed" -- Phyllo shells are already formed and baked. All you do is fill them.

It seems that something is missing from this recipe. How do you first prepare the Phyllo dough? Isn't it first pressed into cupcake pans and baked?

You should be able to find them in either Kroger or Meijer. I believe those 2 stores are in Ohio. Try the frozen food section.
