Time 55m

Yield 10 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 large egg
One 8-ounce wheel Brie
One 17.25-ounce package frozen puff pastry (2 sheets), thawed
All-purpose flour, for dusting
1/3 cup whole-berry cranberry sauce
1/4 cup walnuts, finely chopped
1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F and line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Whisk together the egg with 1 tablespoon of water in a small bowl for an egg wash. Cut the side rind off the Brie, then cut the Brie into 32 even pieces. Set aside.
  • Unfold a puff pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface. Roll out into a 13-inch square. Cut into 16 squares. Repeat with the second sheet so you have 32 squares total.
  • Top a pastry square with about 1/2 teaspoon cranberry sauce, 1/4 teaspoon walnuts, a piece of Brie and a pinch of thyme.
  • Use your finger or a pastry brush to brush the edges of the pastry square with egg wash until lightly coated and tacky. Pinch 2 opposite points together, then pinch the remaining 2 points together so that you have a little package. Repeat with the remaining pastry squares and filling.
  • Transfer the pouches to the prepared baking sheets and brush with the remaining egg wash. Bake until puffed and golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes.

Time 50m

Yield 20 bites

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 1/2 cups cranberry sauce (use homemade or store-bought cranberry sauce)
1 puff pastry sheet
1 brie triangle, chilled

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Thaw puffy pastry sheet flat. Cut puff pastry sheet into approximately 3-inch squares and place them into mini muffin tins, pressing them into the shape of the muffin hole. Place a 1-inch slice of brie in the center of each puff pastry and then top it with approximately 1 tablespoon of cranberry sauce.
  • Bake 10 minutes or until puff pastry corners are toasted light brown. Let cool 5 minutes before serving.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe, firm cranberries for the best flavor and texture.
  • If you don't have fresh cranberries, you can use frozen cranberries. Just thaw them before using.

  • To make the brie bites, simply cut the brie into small pieces and wrap each piece in a wonton wrapper. Then bake at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 10-12 minutes, or until the wonton wrappers are golden brown and the brie is melted and gooey.
  • Serve the brie bites immediately, topped with cranberry sauce and chopped nuts.
