How To Make easy phyllo pastry tarts with hot pepper jelly

1Take 2 sheets of pastry and cover the rest with a damp cloth to keep from drying out.

2Brush a thin layer of butter on one sheet and stack the other sheet on top.
Cut the stacked sheet in half length wise. You will now have two long rectangles. -
3(A pizza cutter works great for this) Brush one rectangle with butter and place the other one on top.
You will then have a 7 x 11 pastry sheet with four layers. -
4Cut that into 12 equal squares.
Press each square into a greased mini muffin tin. -
5Bake at 350 degrees until golden brown, about 10-15 minutes.
Repeat with remaining sheets, remembering to keep unused sheets covered.
Shells may be frozen at this point or filled and ready to serve. -
6To fill: Place 1/2- 1 teaspoon of cream cheese in the center of each tart.
Top with 1/2 to 1 tsp of jelly.
