Method

Preheat the oven to 200°C.

Brush two filo sheets with butter and layer them together.

Cut the pastry into 24 equal squares.

Layer squares in pairs at 45 degree angles to form stars and press into mini-muffin tin holes.

Bake for 5 to 10 minutes until golden-brown and transfer to a tray.

Divide the chopped figs among the pastry cases.

Mash cheese, lemon juice, and sage in a bowl and season with pepper.

Spoon the cheese mixture onto the figs and sprinkle with paprika.

Bake for 5 minutes until the cheese melts.
