Lay 1 sheet of filo onto prepared tray. Brush evenly with melted butter, sprinkle over ¼ of the nut mixture. Brush a second sheet with butter and arrange on top, repeat with another ¼ of the nut mixture.

Divide evenly between cupcake cases and bake for 20 mins until the cupcakes spring back when gently pressed in the centre. Cool completely.
