Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Place phyllo shells on a large parchment-lined baking sheet.

For the custard filling, in a mixing bowl, combine goat cheese, cream cheese, pesto, egg, and flour. Beat with an electric hand mixer on medium speed until smooth.

Spoon mixture into phyllo cups, using scant 1 or 2 teaspoonfuls of mixture for each cup.

Bake for 15 to 18 minutes or until shells are lightly browned.

Garnish with a dollop of pesto, sweet bell peppers and basil. Serve warm and enjoy!
