Halberg’s Filo Cups with Goat Cheese and Chestnut SouffléFilo cups

  • 8 ounces goat cheese
  • 2 ounces cream cheese
  • 2 ounces cream
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/2 cup peeled chestnuts, ground
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 teaspoons minced fresh herbs (thyme, rosemary, basil, and chives)
  • 4 sheets of filo, each lightly buttered and cut into 12 equal squares

Pre-heat oven to 375 degrees F. Lightly butter mini-muffin tin cups and place each square of filo in a cup with corners of filo pointing up. Combine all soufflé ingredients and mix well. Spoon into prepared filo cups (you will have some custard left over), place in oven and bake about 12–15 minutes until soufflés are puffed up and just set. Carefully remove from muffin tin and serve with a salad of organic greens dressed with a light vinaigrette.
