Instructions

Preheat and prepare muffin tin: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly spray a 24-count mini muffin tin with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
Roll and cut dough: Dust your counter or cutting board lightly with all-purpose flour. Roll out the 8-ounce crescent dough sheet. If using crescent rolls, pinch the seams together to form one continuous sheet. Cut the dough into 24 equal-sized squares.
Fill dough squares: Place each dough square into the muffin tin slots, pressing lightly to form small cups. Cut the 8-ounce wheel of brie cheese into small pieces and place one piece inside each dough square.
Add cranberry sauce and rosemary: Top each brie-filled dough cup with a generous spoonful of whole berry cranberry sauce. Add a small piece of fresh rosemary sprig on top of each bite for an aromatic touch.
Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for about 15 minutes or until the crescent dough turns a light golden brown.
Serve warm: Remove from the oven and serve immediately while warm for the best flavor and texture.

Notes

Cranberry Brie Bites combine flaky crescent dough with creamy brie, tangy cranberry sauce, and fresh rosemary for an easy, beautiful appetizer.
Use whole berry cranberry sauce for texture; avoid jellied cranberry sauce to maintain bright flavor and consistency.
Fresh rosemary can be adjusted based on your preference for herb intensity.
Make sure the dough is lightly floured to prevent sticking when rolling and cutting.
Serving warm enhances the taste and texture; these bites are perfect for holiday parties or gatherings.
