How to Make Greek Cheese Filled Frico Cups

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a baking sheet.
Prepare your fillings: In separate bowls, combine the ingredients for the Tiropita and Spanakopita fillings. Make sure to squeeze out excess moisture from the spinach for the Spanakopita.
Divide the Parmesan cheese into 12 equal portions. On a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, shape each portion into a small, thin circle (about 3 inches in diameter) using the back of a spoon.
Bake the Parmesan circles for 5-7 minutes, or until lightly golden and crisp. Remove from oven and let them cool slightly. They will become more rigid as they cool.
Carefully press each Parmesan circle into a mini muffin tin to form a cup.
Fill each Parmesan cup with the Tiropita or Spanakopita filling of your choice.
Bake for another 10-12 minutes, or until the fillings are heated through and the cups are golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before carefully removing the cups from the muffin tin.
Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious Greek Cheese Filled Frico Cups!
