Chocolate Grape Tartlets

2 tablespoons butter

4 cups California seedless grapes

1/4 cup granulated sugar

2 tablespoons flour

2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

6 sheets phyllo dough

1. Gently brown butter in small saucepan over low heat; watch carefully so it will not burn.
2. Mix grapes, sugar, flour, cocoa, vanilla and cinnamon.
3. Working quickly, cut sheets of phyllo dough into 4-inch squares. Place squares between waxed paper and cover with towel.
4. Lightly grease bottom of each cup in a standard muffin tin with browned butter. Place 2 squares phyllo dough in each cup, brush lightly with browned butter, repeat with 2 more squares and brush with browned butter again. (There will be four layers of phyllo dough squares in each cup of the muffin tin.) Fill each with 1/4 cup grape mixture. Sprinkle any remaining cocoa mixture in bottom of bowl over grapes.
5. Cut trimmings of phyllo dough into short narrow strips; sprinkle about 1 tablespoon over filling in each muffin cup. Drizzle remaining butter over top.
6. Bake at 375°F (190°C) 35 to 40 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool slightly; remove from muffin tins.

Makes 12 servings.

Tip: You can also add a scoop of ice cream to these.
