Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Whisk condensed milk, eggs, vanilla, melted butter, and salt in a bowl until smooth and pale, ~90 seconds.

  2. Step 2

    Spoon custard filling into each phyllo shell until three-quarters full. Divide evenly across all 12 shells.

  3. Step 3

    Bake at 350°F for 8–10 minutes until custard is set but centers still jiggle slightly when tapped.

  4. Step 4

    Cool in the pan for 3 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
