BAKED BRIE AND CRANBERRY BITES

By Heather Walker of AZ Family

I couldn't find phyllo cups! Bon Appetit! 

INGREDIENCE

15 phyllo cups
4 oz. Brie Cheese
1/2 Cup dried cranberries or 1/2 can of cranberry sauce
2 springs of fresh thyme

DIRECTIONS

1. Place the phylo cups on a cookie sheet and preheat the oven to 350° .
2. Remove the rind from the brie cheese, cutting the cheese into small bites.
3. Place the brie bites into the center of the phyllo cups.
4. Add 3-4 dried cranberries or spoon a dollop of cranberry sauce into each phyllo cup.
5. Add 2-3 small thyme leaves on top of the Brie.
6. Bake in the oven for 10-12 minutes until the cheese is melted and the cups are golden brown. Remove from heat and serve while warm.

NOTE: You can score a loaf of sourdough bread, stuff the brie and cranberries in between the cuts in the bread. Brush the stuffed loaf with melted butter, and bake at 350 until the cheese is melted.

And I am pairing this delicious brie with Naked Wines Dave Harvey Sweetish Riesling 2022! This goes perfectly with the ceeamy brie and tart cranberry, offset by delicious ripe peach, dried apricot, and candied apple. When you join the Naked Wines club, becoming an Angel, the price is $11.99!

B0N APPETIT!
