Ingredients
  

  • 1 tbsp unsalted butter melted, for greasing
  • 1 package (17.3 oz) frozen puff pastry 2 sheets, thawed
  • 8 oz Brie cheese cut into 24 small pieces
  • 0.5 cup whole-berry cranberry sauce
  • 0.33 cup pecans chopped

  1. Heat the oven to 400°F.
  2. Brush the cups of a 24-cup mini muffin pan with the melted butter.
  3. Cut each puff pastry sheet into 12 equal pieces.
  4. Press one piece into each muffin cup.
  5. Put one piece of Brie in each pastry cup.
  6. Top each with about 1 teaspoon cranberry sauce and some chopped pecans.

For evenly shaped bites, press the pastry pieces firmly into the muffin cups. Refrigerate leftovers for up to 3 days; freezing is not recommended. For a nut-free option, omit the pecans.
