Ingredients

  • 16 oz. puff pastry dough 2 sheets
  • 1 lb. brie cheese
  • 1 cup cranberry sauce homemade or canned
  • 1 tsp. salt to taste
  • ½ cup pecans finely chopped
  • 2 sprigs rosemary fresh

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
  • Remove the rind from the brie cheese and cut into 48 equal-sized pieces.
    1 lb. brie cheese
  • Lightly flour a cutting board and place one 8-ounce sheet of puff pastry dough. If a square piece of dough, cut into 25 equal-sized squares. If a rectangular piece of dough, cut into 24 equal-sized squares.
    16 oz. puff pastry dough
  • Spray a mini muffin pan liberally with non-stick cooking spray.
  • Place one square of puff pastry dough into a cavity and press it down to cover the sides. Make sure all of the sides are covered to at least half of the height so the filling does not spill over.

  • Sprinkle 1 teaspoon of salt over all of the muffin cups.
    1 tsp. salt
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes, or until the edges of pastry dough begin to turn golden brown.
  • Place the chopped pecans on a baking sheet and roast in the oven during the last 5 minutes of cooking.
    ½ cup pecans
  • Just before serving, sprinkle on toasted pecans and add fresh rosemary. Serve warm and enjoy!
