Directions
Authentic Armenian Cheese Boureks With a Twist, These are like cheese puffs, or similar to Greek tyropita, but the Armenian version does not use fillo dough – it is made with homemade dough, rolled very thin and light, then stuffed with a light cheese filling and baked with egg brushed across the top so it comes out golden and crispy – they can be made small as delectable appetizers, or you can make them larger and eat them as a light lunch with a salad or next to soup the kids will LOVE them!, These were good I didn’t have blue cheese, so I subbed parmesan, they didn’t have as much flavor as I expected I had the triple the amount of dough, I had so much filling left I made the first batch tiny, and the next two I added garlic salt to the cheese mix, and made them much bigger Easy recipe thanks p s I am Armenian and have never made these before thanks for the recipe!, These are like cheese puffs, or similar to Greek tyropita, but the Armenian version does not use fillo dough – it is made with homemade dough, rolled very thin and light, then stuffed with a light cheese filling and baked with egg brushed across the top so it comes out golden and crispy – they can be made small as delectable appetizers, or you can make them larger and eat them as a light lunch with a salad or next to soup the kids will LOVE them!

Tip: If You Want to Do These in a Hurry, You Can Use Bisquick Buttery Flaky Crescent Rolls in the Refrigerated Aisle - Just Roll Each Crescent Into a Ball, Smooth Out Into a 3 to 4 Inch Circle and Use the Same Filling -- Our Favorite Fruit to Serve With These Is Sliced Sugared Strawberries and Red Grapes. |
