Equipment

  • Mini muffin tin pan

Ingredients

  • 1 8 oz tube Crescent Sheet roll cut into 2 inch squares
  • 6 oz. Brie cheese cubed
  • 1 tbsp. unsalted butter melted to brush pans
  • ⅓ cup cranberry sauce about 1 tsp. per piece
  • 1 tsp. fresh thyme or rosemary finely chopped
  • ¼ cup walnuts crushed
  • 2 tbsps. honey optional for topping drizzle

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400 degree F.
  • Grease the 12 piece non-stick mini muffin tin pan with butter.
  • Cut the crescent sheet into 1.5-2 inch squares. The whole sheet should be cut evenly into 12 pieces.
  • Cut the brie cheese into 1 inch cubes.
  • First, place each crescent dough piece into the individual muffin tins. Add a piece of brie cheese, top with the cranberry sauce and add the herbs and crushed walnuts on top. You can also add the walnuts afterwards if you prefer.
  • Bake in the oven for 10 minutes or until the sides on the crescent dough is golden on the sides and the center cheese has melted.
  • Remove from the oven and let it cool for a couple of minutes. If you wish to drizzle some honey before serving you can do that now.
  • Serve and enjoy!

Notes

  • Brie Cheese: Freezing your wheel or wedge of brie for just 20 minutes makes slicing it into small pieces a breeze.
  • Crescent Dough: Aim to cut your crescent squares into similar sizes, for even cooking.
  • Grease Pan: Be sure to grease your muffin tin with butter for easy bite removal!
  • Watch the Time: Oven temperatures may vary, so keep an eye on your bites to avoid over-browning or may take a minute or two more to brown.
  • Serve warm: I recommened eating the bites while they are still warm.
  • Do not over fill the bites or else the filling will ooze out.
