Cover strips with plastic wrap & tope with a damp towel to prevent drying. Brush 1 filo strip with melted butter. top with a second strip of filo and brush with butter. Place about 1 1/2 tsp of cheese mixture on short end of strip, off to one corner. Fold 1 corner over to opposite edge covering filling and making a triangle. Continue folding as you would a flag.
