INSTRUCTIONS
Mix everything but the butter and dough together. Cut the dough into 4 or 5
even sets of strips and cover them while you work with wax paper and a
moist dish towel.
Lay out one strip, brush lightly with butter, and repeat with a second
layer. Put a teaspoon of filling at one end, and fold a corner over the
filling. Starting with this initial triangle, fold the dough up like a flag
until you have a little turnover. Repeat for the rest of the dough and
filling, laying them out on a cookie sheet.
Bake at 350° for 20 minutes until brown.
WARNING: when these come out of the oven, the filling remains very hot for
quite a while after the tiropitas themselves are cool enough to handle.
Watch out, if you don't want to see your guests in court seeking damages
for seared palates.
Yields: 50 to 60
NOTES : Flaky cheese triangles.
