List of Ingredients




10 oz pack filo pastry, thawed if frozen
4 tablespoons unsalted butter,
melted icing sugar, cocoa powder, ground cinnamon for dusting

For the Filling:
6 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 oz plain dark chocolate, chopped into small pieces
1 cup ground almonds
2/3 cup chopped dates
1/2 cup icing sugar
2 teaspoons rosewater
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon



Recipe



Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 8 1/2 inch round cake pan. Make the filling: Melt the butter with the chocolate, then stir in the other ingredients to make a paste. Leave to cool. Lay one sheet of filo on a clean work surface. Brush it lightly with melted butter, then lay a second sheet on top and brush that with melted butter too. Roll a handful of the chocolate almond mixture into a long sausage shape and place along one long edge of the layered filo. Roll the pastry tightly around the filling to make a roll. Keep the roll even, shaping it with your hands. Place the roll in the tin, coiling it around, against the sides. Make enough rolls to fill the tim and fit them in place. Brush the coil with the remaining melted butter. Bake in the oven for 30-35 minutes, until the pastry is golden brown and crisp. Remove the coil from the tin, and place it on a plate. Serve warm, dusted with icing sugar, cocoa and cinnamon.
