    List of Ingredients





    Looking for sweet ways to fill frozen mini phyllo shells to create a small-scale dessert buffet try these. The shells are small enough that people can try several flavors. Here are nine combinations devised from pantry staples.





    Peaches 'n' cream

    Mix a tablespoon of sour cream with a heaping teaspoon of brown sugar. Dice a peach slice (canned is OK) and stir into sour cream. Fill shells and sprinkle with brown sugar.

    Variation: Substitute grape halves and slivers of pineapple for the peach.

    Cherry-chocolate cheesecake

    Fill shell halfway with whipped cream cheese. Top with Bonne Maman cherry preserves, a few milk chocolate baking chips and slivers of toasted almond.

    Pudding cups

    Spoon prepared chocolate snack pudding into a baked, cooled shell. Top with a banana slice and milk chocolate chips.

    Variation: Top banana with vanilla snack pudding mixed with crumbled vanilla wafers.

    Limey blueberries

    Spread a layer of Dickinson's lime curd on bottom of shell and top with blueberry yogurt. Garnish with a blueberry.

    Raspberry loves chocolate

    Spread a layer of Wilkin & Sons raspberry seedless preserves on bottom of shell; top with semisweet chocolate chips and slivers of toasted almond.

    Apricot preserves

    Fill shell with apricot preserves; sprinkle with toasted coconut and nuts. Or stir in diced peaches and top with whipped cream.

    Peaches and apple

    Fill shell with peach preserves; mix in bits of diced green apple.

    Caramel apple, but better

    Fill warm shells with bits of chewy caramels and milk chocolate baking chips; let cool and top with diced apple.

    Go Greek

    Layer vanilla yogurt with honey. Sprinkle with toasted walnuts.

    WHEN TO FILL?

    You can fill mini phyllo shells with ingredients such as jam and fruit pie filling before baking. But the shells are crisper if you bake them first. Experiment and see which you like best.
