Raciónes: 12
Ingredientes
- 1/2 lb Feta cheese

Direcciones
- Mix everything but the butter and dough together. Cut the dough into 4 or possibly 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 tsp. of filling at one end, and fold a corner over the filling. Starting with this initial triangle, fold the dough up like a flag till 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 min till brown.
- WARNING: when these come out of the oven, the filling remains very warm for quite a while after the tiropitas themselves are cold sufficient to handle.
- Watch out, if you do not want to see your guests in court seeking damages for seared palates.
- Yields: 50 to 60
- NOTES : Flaky cheese triangles.
