Ingredients
  • 18 sheets Phyllo (filo) dough (preferably Athens brand)
  • 1/2 cup Butter, melted
  • 6 Large cloves garlic, tough bottoms cut off
  • 2 tbsp Lemon juice
  • 2 tbsp Water
  • 8 ounces Cream cheese
  • 4 ounces Feta cheese, crumbled
  • 2 Eggs, beaten
  • 1 6-ounce Can crab meat, drained
  • 2 cups Soft bread crumbs, divided
  • Paprika and cayenne pepper to taste

Directions
  1. SHELL:
  2. Take 3 sheets phyllo at a time, butter and roll up (jelly-roll style). Make 6 rolls
  3. Cut each roll into fourths.
  4. Press cut side down into muffin pan cups (one in each of a 24-cup pan); use fingers to work up slightly onto sides of each cup. Brush cups lightly with remaining melted butter.
  5. FILLING:
  6. Place garlic into a plastic bag and pound with a side of a meat cleaver. Remove skins and place crushed garlic into a deep microwave-safe bowl. Add lemon juice and water. Cover and microwave for 2 minutes. Add garlic to cream cheese and mix together. Beat eggs and add to cream cheese. Add crumbled feta cheese, drained crab meat and 1 cup of soft bread crumbs. Mix all together. Sprinkle about 1/8 tsp of cayenne pepper into mixture. Mix further. Spoon mixture evenly into 24 muffin cups lined with the phyllo dough (use about 1 Tbsp per cup). Lightly dust top of each with paprika.
  7. Bake in 350-degree oven for 25 minutes or until golden brown.

Oh God, this sounds wonderful will definitely give it a go


How yummy. Mom used to make phyllo cups with sausage (sausage stars) and this sounds like a definite step up. Love all things crabby. Delicious.
