Dried Plum and Walnut Phyllo Triangles

Ingredients

  • 2 sheets thawed phyllo dough
  • 4 tablespoons (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
  • 4 tablespoons sugar
  • 2 ounces cream cheese, cut into cubes
  • 6 dried plums, halved
  • 2 tablespoons chopped walnuts
  • 12 pieces candied orange peel
  • Powdered sugar, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line a large sheet pan with parchment paper.
  2. On a work surface carefully brush a sheet of phyllo with melted butter and sprinkle it with 1 to 2 tablespoons sugar. Cut 6 strips from top to bottom 3 inches wide.
  3. Place a cube of cream cheese, a piece of dried plum, some chopped walnuts, and a piece of candied orange peel at the end of each strip. Fold them into triangles by folding the dough over itself as if folding a flag. Place them on the sheet pan. Brush the tops of the triangles with butter and a final sprinkling with sugar.
  4. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, until the phyllo is golden brown. Let cool and serve within 6 hours sprinkled with powdered sugar.
