- On a work surface, stack up the sheets of filo pastry (without removing their attached paper) and cut into 20cm-sided squares.
- Break the egg into a bowl and beat gently with a fork.
- Add the breadcrumbs, chabichou du Poitou, pine nut kernels, currants, chives, cinnamon and black pepper, and mix well.
- Lightly brush each filo pastry square with melted butter, and place a rounded teaspoon of stuffing mixture in the centre. Roll the square into a small sausage, then tie the ends to create a cracker-like parcel.
- Sprinkle with icing sugar and place on a non-stick baking tray.
- Bake in an oven for 30 minutes at 200°, gas mark 6, or until golden.
- Serve warm with drinks, or as a starter, accompanied by a rocket salad.
