Cranberry Brie Bites Directions:
Preheat your oven to 375 degrees. Liberally spray two mini muffin trays with baking spray. Set them aside.
Open the tube of dough and roll the crescent dough out on a clean surface or cutting board. Pinch together the pre-cut creases, then use a pizza cutter to cut the dough into 24 equal squares. Do six columns from the top and four rows from the side.
Place each cut crescent dough square in the prepared mini muffin trays.
Gently press the center of each piece of dough down into the cup to form a small muffin cup.
Remove the brie from its packaging. Cut the brie into 24 pieces and divide it among all muffin cups. The outside rind of the brie is edible. You can leave it on or take it off – it is totally up to you! If you can’t find brie, you can use any soft cheese like goat cheese.
Top each piece of brie with a teaspoon of cranberry sauce.
Bake for 10-12 minutes, until lightly golden. Allow the cranberry brie bites to cool for a few minutes, and then remove from the pan to serve. These are best served hot and warm so that the cheese is melty and lovely.
