Notes
- You can make this appetizer with, or without the rind of the cheese included.Fill the cups completely with cheese, remember brie melts down about 50% so fill those shells up!Remove the cranberries quickly after they start to pop, to avoid mushy berries. You want them to hold their shape a bit with this dish.
