shredded phyllo nest dessert

1. First, preheat oven at 350 F.
2. Store bought a package of knafeh or kataïfi and cut the knafeh noodles into small pieces into a bowl. Now Add some melted butter and toss well to coated the knafeh noodle strands well.
3. In a muffin pan, add some amount of buttered shredded phyllo noodles (knafeh) and pressed it down to take the shape of the muffin cup with an indentation in the middle of it.
4. Bake for 8-12 minutes or until golden brown. Keep an eye on it because everyone's oven temperature varies.Allow it to cool before removing from muffin pan. It should look like the picture below.

You can store in an air tight container for later use. Also right before using, drizzled with honey and serve with desire topping.  Here I've used fresh sweet whipping cream with strawberries.
