Chocolate-filled Filo Triangles

Prayer becomes a natural reflex like breathing. We don’t need to search for prayer content. We just need to love the Lord by learning His word and love others in the church in an intimate way. In following the two greatest commandments, we’ll have the knowledge we need to pray appropriately. In our love for the Lord we will naturally have a desire to speak continually with Him and in our love for others we know the best thing we can do for them is pray. You see, prayer is birthed not from duty, but from relationship – first love to God and then love to others.

INSTRUCTIONS

Break up 4 ounces of chocolate into 1/2-ounce pieces. Set aside. In a
food processor, finely grind the remaining chocolate with the sugar.
Lay 8 sheets of filo out on top of each other. Place one sheet
lengthwise on the work surface. Keep the remaining sheets covered  with
a damp towel.  Brush the sheet with some melted butter. Sprinkle with 1
1/2  tablespoons of the sugar mixture. Place a second sheet over the
sugared sheet. Butter the second sheet and sprinkle with the sugar
mixture. Add 2 more sheets, buttering and sprinkling between each.  Cut
the filo horizontally into 4 even strips. Starting at the left  side of
one of the strips, place a 1/2-ounce piece of chocolate 2  inches from
the end. Fold the filo that is to the left of the piece  of chocolate
over the chocolate toward the back side of the strip,  making a 3-inch
triangle. The left end of the filo should be even  with the back edge.
Fold the piece of chocolate to the right, over  itself, retaining the
triangular shape. Fold the chocolate piece  toward the front edge of
the strip. Continue wrapping the chocolate,  alternating the direction
with each fold, until you get to the end.  (It is like folding a flag.)
Wrap the other strips in the same  manner. With the remaining sheets,
make 4 more chocolate-filled  triangles. Preheat the oven to 350
degrees. Place the triangles on  the baking sheet. Bake until golden
brown, about 10 minutes. Serve  warm. Recipe By : COOKING LIVE SHOW
