Brie and Cranberry Bites Recipe
Description
Brie and Cranberry Bites blend the soft richness of brie cheese with the vibrant sweetness of cranberry sauce and fresh cranberries inside delicate mini filo shells. The filling is assembled by cutting brie into small pieces, layering with cranberry sauce and halved cranberries, then broiling briefly to melt the cheese gently and warm the tart berries. The crunch of the filo shells contrasts with the creamy texture of the cheese and the fruity sauce, offering a pleasing mix of tastes and textures. This appetizer suits occasions where small, flavorful bites are desired, and they can be served warm to best enjoy the melted brie or at room temperature.
Ingredients
- 1 cup cranberry sauce
- 8 oz Brie cheese
- 1/4 cup cranberries
- 12 mini filo shells
Instructions
- Cut the brie into small pieces that will fit just perfectly into the fillo cups.
- Place the brie in the cup first, followed by the cranberry sauce and cranberry halves.
- Broil the brie and cranberry bites on the lower rack of the oven for about 7 minutes, or until the cheese is melted. Serve them warm or at room temperature!
