Place second phyllo square atop first square, turning second square slightly so that corners point in different directions. Repeat with 2 more phyllo squares, placing each at a different angle atop others. Gently press stack of phyllo squares into 1 prepared custard cup, forming pastry tulip. Repeat process with remaining phyllo squares, butter and 3 t sugar, forming 3 more pastry tulips. Chill 30 minutes.
