The left end of the phyllo should be even with the back edge.

CHEESE FILLED TRIANGLES
The only tricky part of this recipe is working with phyllo, and once you get the hang of it, it's fun. Sometimes you get a bad batch of phyllo that rips and tears easily, so I always buy an extra just in case. I have frozen these before baking. Just add a few minutes to cooking time when you cook them in a frozen state. I have also doubled this recipe for large parties.

Steps:
- Heat olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Slowly cook and stir onion until tender, about 5 minutes. Mix in spinach and salt. Stir in feta cheese, cottage cheese and egg. Cook and stir until thickened, 5 to 10 minutes. Reduce heat to simmer.
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
- Unroll phyllo dough sheets one at a time on a flat surface. Brush with unsalted butter. Cut into strips approximately 5 inches wide. Place 1 tablespoon of the onion, spinach and feta mixture at one end of each dough strip. Fold the end of the strip over the filling so that it forms a triangle. Continue folding the strip in triangles until a small, triangular stuffed pastry remains. Brush with unsalted butter. Repeat with remaining phyllo dough.
- Arrange stuffed triangles on a large baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven 12 to 15 minutes, until golden brown. Serve warm.

These are absolutely delicious, flaky and delicate, with a chocolate mascarpone pecan filling. Rich, but not too sweet. Once you try creating with phyllo, it is not difficult as long as you follow instructions. Be sure to keep the sheets under a damp cloth while preparing the triangles. Drizzle each triangle with a little honey when serving.

Tips:
- Use a sharp knife to cut the filo pastry. This will help to prevent the pastry from tearing.
- Brush the filo pastry with melted butter before baking. This will help to give the pastry a golden brown color and a crispy texture.
- Don't overfill the filo triangles. If you do, they will be difficult to close and may burst open during baking.
- Bake the filo triangles until they are golden brown. This will ensure that the pastry is cooked through and the chocolate filling is melted and gooey.
- Serve the filo triangles warm. They are best enjoyed fresh out of the oven, when the chocolate filling is still melted.
Conclusion:
Chocolate-filled filo triangles are a delicious and easy-to-make dessert. They are perfect for any occasion, from a casual get-together to a formal dinner party. With their crispy filo pastry and rich chocolate filling, these triangles are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy dessert, give chocolate-filled filo triangles a try. You won't be disappointed!
