long side over center. Roll up to form strudel; transfer to baking sheet.

Repeat layering
remaining phyllo sheets with more cooking spray. Repeat cutting, filling and rolling up.

transfer remaining strudels to baking sheet. Lightly coat with cooking spray; sprinkle with remaining sugar. Bake 12-14 minutes or until crisp and lightly browned. Cool on pan on rack. Combine powdered sugar with lemon juice until smooth; drizzle over strudels.
