Roll out the filling to the thickness of a finger, place lengthwise in the middle of the pastry strips. Fold the dough around the filling and make into rolls. Cut the rolls into 3.5 cm long trianges in a zigzag shape. Place on a baking tray lined with baking paper. Brush the Biberli with a little milk.
