Tuck each phyllo square into the muffin cups. Repeat the same steps to create 12 more phyllo cups. Fill the center of each phyllo cup with the filling. Brush melted butter over the exposed phyllo cups. Bake on the center rack of the preheated oven for 45 minutes till 1 hour or until the filling is set and the phyllo is golden.
