Ingredients
- 1 tube Pillsbury crescent rolls (or 1 tube of Crescent Sheets, or 1 sheet of puff pastry)
- 1 brick Brie cheese (approximately 200-250 grams)
- ½ can cranberry sauce (or ½ cup homemade cranberry sauce)
- ½ cup walnuts (chopped, optional)
- fresh Rosemary (for garnish, optional)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray a 24 cup mini muffin tin, or two 12 cup mini muffin tins with cooking spray.
- Unroll the Pillsbury Crescent roll sheet onto a lightly floured surface. Firmly pinch and press the cuts together to seal completely. Cut dough into 24 equal squares (6 by 4 grid cuts).
- Cut the brick of brie into 24 squares.
- Place 1 dough square into each mini muffin tin cup and gently press down to form the cups.
- Add a piece of brie into each muffin and top with small spoonful of cranberry sauce.
- Optional: add a few pieces of chopped walnuts into each cup.
- Bake on the middle rack of the oven for 12-15 minutes, until the crescent dough is golden brown. Note: ensure to bake on the middle rack of your oven for the dough to evenly bake. If baked too high the tops may burn, if baked too low the bottoms may burn.
- Remove from the oven and place the muffin tin a cooling rack.
- Optional: garnish with fresh chopped rosemary.
- Serve warm or at room temperature and enjoy!

Notes
- Muffin Tin - if you do not have a mini muffin tin (24 count), you can use a regular sized muffin tin (12 count). Instead of cutting the crescent roll sheet into 24 pieces (6 x 4 grid cuts), you will only need 12 pieces (4 x 3 grid cuts). You can also cut the brick of brie into 12 pieces instead of 24.
