Categories     dessert

Time 1h40m

Yield 16 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 cups finely chopped walnuts
1 cup sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cardamom
1 package phyllo
Butter, melted
Syrup, recipe follows
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup honey
1 cinnamon stick
2 slices lemon
2 slices orange
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup finely chopped walnuts or pistachios, for garnish

Steps:

  • In a bowl combine the walnuts, sugar and cardamom. Butter a 9 by 9 by 1 3/4-inch baking dish. Cover phyllo with a very lightly dampened towel and keep covered at all times when it is not being used. Cut phyllo into 8 by 11-inch sheets. Place 1 sheet at a time on a work surface and lightly brush with butter. Place 2 tablespoons of the spiced sugar-nut mixture lengthwise down the center of each leaf of phyllo. Fold each sheet over several times lengthwise to form a 1-inch wide strip, enclosing the filling. Roll up each strip to make a coil and place flat (coil side up) in the prepared dish against the side to prevent it from uncoiling. Repeat the whole procedure with the rest of the phyllo sheets. Brush with butter and bake in a preheated 350 degrees F oven for 40 minutes.
  • Combine all of the ingredients, except nuts, and bring to a boil. Simmer for 30 minutes, cool for 10 minutes, then strain. Pour over pastries once they have come out of the oven and let soak for 1 hour. Sprinkle with walnuts or pistachios.

MINI CHOCOLATE-RASPBERRY PHYLLO TARTS



Mini Chocolate-Raspberry Phyllo Tarts image

Delicate layers of golden phyllo turn a raspberry brownie-like filling into a dessert special enough for a dinner party. Using store-bought phyllo sheets and an easy brownie batter means these treats come together quickly. I love the pop of color a garnish of fresh raspberries gives, but a small scoop of vanilla ice cream would be just as fantastic.

Time 1h40m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

5 sheets phyllo dough, thawed if frozen, each about 9-by-14 inches
2 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
2/3 cup semisweet chocolate chips
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon fine salt
1 large egg, at room temperature
1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon almond flour
3 tablespoons raspberry preserves
18 fresh raspberries, for garnish
Powdered sugar, for dusting

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • For the pastry shells: Use a pastry brush to brush one sheet of phyllo with melted butter. Top with another sheet and brush with butter and repeat for a total of 4 layers. Top with the remaining sheet of phyllo but do not brush the top with butter.
  • Use the remaining melted butter to brush the insides of 6 cups of a standard 12-cup muffin pan, leaving every other cup empty.
  • Use a pizza cutter or sharp knife to cut the stack of phyllo sheets into 6 squares, each about 4-by-4 inches. Ease each square into a buttered muffin cup, pressing gently to line the cup and allowing the edges to fold in. Refrigerate while you make the batter.
  • For the batter: Microwave the chocolate chips and butter in a medium microwave-safe bowl in 20 second intervals, stirring between each interval, until smooth, about 60 seconds. Whisk in the sugar, vanilla and salt. Whisk in the egg until smooth, then whisk the mixture vigorously for 20 seconds. Whisk in the almond flour until combined.
  • Divide the batter between the phyllo-lined cups. Place a heaping teaspoon of jam in the center of each cup and swirl with a toothpick. Bake until a clean toothpick inserted near the center comes out with moist crumbs, 34 to 38 minutes.
  • Cool the tarts in the pan for 10 minutes before carefully transferring them to a cooling rack to cool completely. Dust each tart with powdered sugar and top with a few fresh raspberries before serving.
