Roasted Grape and Sweet Cheese Phyllo Galette
Faced with an abundant grape crop, I created this easy, impressive-looking dessert. I like to add a drizzle of honey and a sprinkle of coarse sugar to finish it off. —Kallee Krong-Mccreery, Escondido, California

Makes
10 servings
Ingredients
1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened
2 tablespoons orange marmalade
1 teaspoon sugar
8 sheets phyllo dough (14x9-inch size)
4 tablespoons butter, melted
1 cup seedless grapes
1 tablespoon honey
2 teaspoons coarse sugar
Directions
Preheat oven to 350°. In a large bowl, beat cream cheese, marmalade and sugar until smooth; set aside.
Place 1 sheet of phyllo dough on a parchment-lined baking sheet; brush with butter. Layer with remaining phyllo sheets, brushing each layer. (Keep remaining phyllo covered with plastic wrap and a damp towel to prevent it from drying out.) Spread cream cheese mixture over phyllo to within 2 in. of edges. Arrange grapes over cream cheese.
Fold edges of phyllo over filling, leaving center uncovered. Brush folded phyllo with any remaining butter; drizzle with honey and sprinkle with coarse sugar. Bake until phyllo is golden brown, 35-40 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Refrigerate leftovers.
