These went over really well. They were super easy to make and are great for a party because you can make them ahead of time. Being that I don't eat chocolate, I experimented with a few of them using carob in place of the chocolate. I am used to the bittersweet taste of the carob and felt that it worked nicely, but Savory's wife didn't find them as yummy being that she is not accustomed to the flavor. However, she was all over the chocolate ones.

8 oz semisweet chocolate, chopped,
3/4 cup chopped and toasted pecans
20 sheets phyllo dough (14 in by 9 in)

Melt chocolate in the microwave. Stir in pecans.

Lightly brush on sheet of phyllo with butter, place another sheet of phyllo on top and brush with butter. Keep remaining phyllo covered with a damp cloth to keep it from drying out. Cut the two layered sheets into three 14 in by 3 in strips.

Place a heaping teaspoonful of chocolate mixture in the lower corner of phyllo strip. Fold dough over filling, forming a triangle. Fold the triangle up, then fold the triangle over, forming another triangle. (Note: if you used to play "football" with a little paper triangle and finger goals you will know exactly how to fold up these little triangles). Repeat with remaining strips of dough and remaining sheets of phyllo.

Place triangles on a greased baking sheet. Bake at 375 degrees for 15-17 minutes or until golden brown. Cool on a wire rack. Sprinkle with confectioners sugar. Yield:30 servings.
