Ingredients

• 8 oz block feta cheese, crumbled
• 12 sheets phyllo dough (thawed)
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
• For Chili Honey Magic:
• 1/2 cup honey
• 1-2 tsp red pepper flakes (adjust to taste)
• Pinch of sea salt
• Optional Garnish: Fresh mint leaves or finely chopped parsley

Instructions

1. 1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. 2. Gently unroll the thawed phyllo dough and cover it with a damp cloth to prevent drying.
3. 3. In a small bowl, crumble the feta cheese.
4. 4. Take one sheet of phyllo dough and lay it flat on a clean surface. Lightly brush the entire surface with melted butter.
5. 5. Fold the phyllo sheet in half lengthwise, creating a long rectangle. Brush the top surface again with melted butter.
6. 6. Place about 1-2 tablespoons of crumbled feta near one end of the folded phyllo, leaving a small border.
7. 7. Fold the sides of the phyllo inwards over the feta, then roll tightly from the end with the feta to create a cigar-shaped roll.
8. 8. Place the finished roll seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining phyllo sheets and feta, brushing each roll generously with melted butter after placement.
9. 9. Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until the feta rolls are golden brown and crispy.
10. 10. While the rolls are baking, prepare the Chili Honey Magic: In a small saucepan, combine honey, red pepper flakes, and a pinch of sea salt. Heat over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until the honey is warm and slightly thinned, and the flavors have melded (about 3-5 minutes). Do not boil.
11. 11. Once baked, remove the feta rolls from the oven.
12. 12. Arrange the hot feta rolls on a serving platter and generously drizzle with the Chili Honey Magic. Garnish with fresh mint or parsley, if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy the magic!
