Description

Delicious puff pastry bites filled with brie cheese and cranberry sauce, perfect for any gathering or celebration.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 sheet Frozen Puff Pastry (thawed overnight in the refrigerator)
  • 2 Tablespoons All Purpose Flour (for dusting the dough)
  • 8 Ounce Wheel of Brie Cheese
  • 1 cup Whole Berry Cranberry Sauce
  • 1/4 cup Chopped Pecans (optional)
  • Fresh Rosemary Sprigs (optional)

Instructions

  1. Place the wheel of brie cheese in the freezer for 15 minutes so that it keeps its form while baking.
  2. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F and spray a mini muffin pan generously with a non-stick cooking spray.
  3. Sprinkle the flour onto a cutting surface and roll out the puff pastry.
  4. Cut the sheet lengthwise into 4 even strips and then cut it crosswise into 6 even strips making 24 equal size square pieces.
  5. Press each piece down into the mini muffin tin.
  6. Dice the wheel of cheese into 24 small pieces (approximately ¾ inch in size) and even place it inside of the center of each of the mini muffin tin.
  7. Top each square with a heaping teaspoon of the whole cranberry sauce.
  8. Top each one with chopped pecans (if using).
  9. Bake for 18-20 minutes until the dough is golden brown.
  10. Let them rest in the pan for about 5 minutes. Carefully remove to a serving plate and top each piece with a sprig of fresh rosemary (if using).
  11. Serve and enjoy!

Notes

  • Ensure puff pastry is fully thawed before rolling out.
  • For extra flavor, consider adding herbs to the cranberry sauce.
