I had trouble with this recipe. I don't have much experience using phyllo dough and it was really tattered on the edges and maybe that is why things didn't work out too well. I followed the instructions exactly. I liked the flavor of the filling, pretty cream cheesey but still good. You might want to add a little garlic powder. The real problem is that only about 2 of the triangles did not leak when baked! I tried using less filling, I tried pinching the edges more, I tried cooking them for less time but nothing worked. On the ones that I used less filling hoping they would not leak it seemed I was eating all dough, not enough filling flavor. I feel like if you had a larger triangle or pocket they would be better. My boyfriend did like them, he thought they were great but I would not have wanted to serve them to company because of how they looked (leaking filling) and I doubt I would go through all of this trouble again. I made about 3/4 of it and then decided to give it up and use the rest for dip. It took me MUCH longer than 25 minutes to prepare. If anyone has a clue as to why all the filling ran out I would like to know. I usually don't use recipes that have not been rated but this one sounded good so I tried it. Good luck.
