Spam Puffs

Makes 32 puffs

• Ingredients

1 (12-ounce) can of Spam cubed (any variety)

1 roll of Athens Phyllo Pastry Sheets

1 (8-ounce) package of cream cheese

1 egg

1/4 cup sugar (less or more to taste)

Melted butter or cooking spray

Bring all ingredients to room temperature. Mix cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Add egg and mix. Fold in Spam. Set aside.

Layer five Phyllo sheets, on at a time, lightly coating each with butter or cooking spray between each layer. Cut into eight equal sections, about 3 1/2 by 4 1/2 inches each. Repeat this 4 times.

Line a muffin or cupcake pan with the Phyllo sections. Fill each cup with a heaping tablespoon of Spam mixture. Fold corners inward to semi-close the cup. Bake at 350 degrees for about 30 minutes, or until gold brown.

Note: Other ingredients can be added to create a variety of flavor combinations, including jalapeños, pineapple, maple bacon or buffalo sauce.
