Ingredients
Ingredients
- 1 sheet puff pastry, thawed
- ½ cup cranberry sauce
- 4 oz Brie cheese, cut into small cubes
- 1 tbsp chopped rosemary (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to ensure it is hot and ready for baking your bites.
- Prepare Puff Pastry: Cut the thawed puff pastry sheet into 2-inch squares and gently press each square into the wells of a mini muffin tin, forming a small cup shape to hold the fillings.
- Add Fillings: Place a small cube of Brie cheese into each puff pastry cup, then add about 1 teaspoon of cranberry sauce over the cheese to give each bite a sweet and tangy flavor.
- Optional Topping: Sprinkle a pinch of chopped rosemary over each bite if desired to add a fresh, aromatic note.
- Bake: Place the muffin tin in the oven and bake for 15 to 18 minutes, or until the puff pastry is golden brown and the Brie cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Serve: Carefully remove the bites from the muffin tin and serve warm for the best flavor and texture.
Notes
- Use crescent dough as a substitute if puff pastry is unavailable.
- Add chopped walnuts on top before baking for some crunchy texture.
