Recipe: Orange Pistachio Cheesecake in Phyllo

CRAFT: Celebrate the Season

By Katie Goodman

I had the idea that cheesecake with a phyllo crust would be really delicious for a holiday dessert. I asked a friend if she'd ever tried this before. She said no, but that it sounded delicious and would be great with honey and pistachios. So here is the recipe inspired by that conversation.

It's a bit different than traditional cheesecake, and the filling is lighter and fluffier. Topped with pistachios and a honey marmalade glaze, it's gorgeous! And it certainly does not take as long to bake as traditional cheesecake.

I really wanted to continue my trend of mini, party-sized desserts with this recipe, but the grocery store didn't cooperate. I went to purchase the frozen mini phyllo cups that I've seen many times in the frozen food aisle and this time they were conveniently sold out. I've still included instructions for how do bake the cheesecakes that way, but also as a full-sized pie, as that is how I had to prepare the recipe.
