folded sheet of phyllo into prepared tart pan, allowing ends to extend over
edges of pan, and recoat phyllo with cooking spray. Place another folded
sheet of phyllo across first sheet in crisscross design, and recoat phyllo
with cooking spray. Repeat the procedure with remaining 3 sheets of phyllo.
Turn under edges of phyllo to form a rim, and coat rim with cooking spray.
