Instructions

1

Preheat the oven to 200°C, fan 180°C, gas mark 6. Melt the spread in a pan over a low heat. Lay one of the filo sheets on a work surface and brush with half of the melted spread. Sprinkle over the cinnamon, then lay the other sheet on top. Brush with the remaining spread.

2

Cut the sheet into 10 equal squares. Mist the holes of a mini muffin tin with cooking spray, then line with the pastry squares. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until crisp and golden. Remove from the oven and leave to cool.

3

To make the filling, put all the filling ingredients in a bowl and whisk until combined.

4

Spoon the filling into a piping bag fitted with a thick, star-shaped nozzle. When the cups have cooled, pipe the filling into each and decorate with the chocolate to serve.
