Cranberry Brie Bites



I made these delicious cranberry brie bites for my bookclub: 
https://www.delish.com/cooking/recipe-ideas/a56610/cranberry-brie-bites-recipe/

I used a cranberry-apricot relish that I make for Thanksgiving. Since it freezes well, I put half into the freezer for the next year. (Recipe below).

Ingredients

1 (8-oz.) tube crescent dough
Cooking spray
All-purpose flour, for surface
1 (8-oz.) wheel of brie [chilled in the refrigerator for easy cutting]
1/2 c. whole berry cranberry sauce
1/4 c.  chopped roasted unsalted pecans
6  sprigs fresh rosemary, cut into 1" pieces.
 

Directions
 
Preheat oven to 375°. Grease a mini (24-cup) muffin tin with cooking spray. On a lightly floured surface, roll out crescent dough and pinch together seams. Cut into 24 squares [using a pizza cutter makes it easy to cut]. Place squares into prepared cups.
 
Cut brie into small pieces and place inside dough. Top with a spoonful of cranberry sauce, pecans, and one piece of rosemary.
 
Bake bites until pastry is golden brown, about 15 minutes. Check at 8 minutes.
 
My Notes: 

I put about a half teaspoon into the cups. 

I didn't need to pinch the seams together when I rolled out the dough. 

I cut the pecans into smaller pieces.
