"I went to a cooking class and this is one of the recipes I created. These tasty triangles are really *wonderful*, and are definitely ones not to be missed! Love the sweetness of the sweet potato with the cinnamon and nuts. *Great* textures and flavors in this *yummy* dessert! These are a terrific idea for the holidays too, especially Thanksgiving!"

Step by Step Method
Step 1
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Step 2
Mix all filling ingredients together in a large bowl. Set aside to cool.
Step 3
Place one sheet of phyllo dough on table. With a butter brush, lightly spread melted butter on phyllo sheet. Sprinkle with sugar.
Step 4
Layer second sheet of phyllo on top of first one, and repeat procedure.
Step 5
Layer with third sheet and repeat procedure.
Step 6
Place 2 tablespoonfuls of sweet potato mixture in one corner of the phyllo dough. Now fold phyllo sheets in half the long way, covering the sweet potato mixture.
Step 7
Continue, folding phyllo into a triangle, and folding back and forth from side to side, as if folding a military flag, until you get to the end of the dough. Tuck any leftover ends in, and put onto baking sheet, coated with non-stick cooking spray.
Step 8
Repeat until all triangles are finished.

Spread some melted butter on top of each triangle, then sprinkle with some sugar and nuts on top.
