Preheat oven to 180ºC (160ºC for fan ovens)/350ºF/Gas M4. Have ready a 12 hole muffin tin.

Layer up 3 filo squares at a time, with their points off set, brushing each lightly with melted butter as you layer.

Press each 'stack' into a muffin form and proceed with remaining pastry.

Bake for 10 - 12 minutes until golden brown. Cool and store until required.
