Terapitas
This is a Greek recipe that my mom use to make for parties.
Ingredients:
1 pound filo dough
1 pound feta cheese
1 pound cream cheese (2 8 oz pkgs)
1 pound sweet butter
8 egg yolks
1 teaspoon freshly ground nutmeg
(extra melted sweet butter)


Directions:
Have all ingredients at room temperature. Mix cheeses, butter, egg and nutmeg. Unfold filo. Cut into 3-inch strips, keep remaining leaves dampened with a towel. Fill with a teaspoon of filling and fold as you would a flag, first brushing with melted butter. Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for 30 minutes.
 
Ohh this sound really good. 1lb of Feta:)

BTW the best feta I have ever had was the Bulgarian feta sold in all the little mom and pop grocery stores in QNS... amazing so much better than the supermarket stuff...

I love filo too!
