Ingredients
  

  • 1 Nonstick cooking spray
  • 1 package (17.3 oz) frozen puff pastry 2 sheets; thawed according to package directions

  • 1 cup whole-berry cranberry sauce
  • 0.5 cup pecans chopped

Equipment

  • 1 24-cup mini muffin pan

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F.
  2. Coat a 24-cup mini muffin pan with nonstick cooking spray.
  3. Unfold the puff pastry sheets and cut each into 12 squares.
  4. Press one square into each muffin cup.
  5. Put a piece of Brie in each pastry cup.
  6. Top each with cranberry sauce and chopped pecans.
  7. Bake for 15–18 minutes, until the pastry is puffed and golden and the Brie is melted.
  8. Let the bites rest in the pan for 5 minutes.
  9. Loosen them gently and serve warm.

Notes

For the flakiest pastry, keep it cool while assembling the bites. Refrigerate leftovers for up to 3 days; freezer storage is suitable, though the pastry may soften when reheated. For a nut-free option, omit the pecans.
