Christmas is a great time for a special treat. Each year I make some delicious baked goods to share with daycare and work and then I make some special treats for the Christmas Day with family. One of those special flavors of the Christmas season is cranberry! While I’m not a fan of it many other times of the year, I am at Christmas and the Holidays.
I love cheese, especially brie, so why not add it to a favorite Christmas flavor, Cranberry and make a delicious treat for your family and friends?! These cranberry brie bites are so delicious and super simple to make. They look great on a serving platter, too!! Find the recipe and tutorial below.
Cranberry Brie Bites
Ingredients:
- 1 wheel of Brie cheese
- 1 can of crescent sheets (or crescent dough)
- 1 can whole cranberry sauce
- Fresh rosemary
Instructions:
Lightly flour a countertop.
Roll out a sheet of crescent dough. If you can’t find the whole sheets, you can use the crescent rolls, just pinch the perforated lines to make them whole.
Using a knife or pizza cutter, slice into 12 pieces. If using a mini muffin tin for tiny bites, cut the dough into 24 pieces.
Spray a muffin tin with cooking spray. Put each square of dough into the pan making sure that it forms a bit of a bowl.
Next, slice your cheese into 12 pieces. I cut the rind of mine, but you can leave it on if you wish. It is edible and a bit of personal preference! If using the mini pan, cut each slice in half.
Add one slice of cheese into each dough ‘bowl’.
Open a can of whole cranberry sauce. Spoon some on top of each piece of cheese.
Lastly, lay a bit of fresh rosemary on top of each one.
Bake in the oven at 375 for 12-15 minutes.
Serve warm.
