Ingredients
- 1, 14 oz can Ocean’s Spray Cranberry Sauce
- ¼ cup orange juice
- 1 Tbsp fresh orange zest
- ¼ cup sugar
- ¼ tsp cinnamon
- 1, 8 oz tube crescent dough
- 1, 8 oz wheel of Brie
- 1 Tbsp fresh thyme
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F and grease a 24-count mini muffin tin with cooking spray. Set it aside.
- In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the cranberry sauce, orange juice, orange zest, sugar, and cinnamon. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce to a simmer for about 5 minutes, or until the sauce thickens up nicely.
- Roll out the crescent dough onto a piece of parchment paper or a lightly floured surface. Cut the dough into 24 even squares—don’t worry, they don’t have to be perfect! Place each piece into a slot of the muffin tin.
- Cut the Brie into small pieces and place one in each dough-filled muffin cup. The creamy, melty Brie is the star of the show!
- Spoon about 1 teaspoon of your cranberry sauce on top of each piece of Brie. The sweet and tangy sauce pairs perfectly with the rich, creamy cheese.
- Sprinkle a pinch of fresh thyme on each bite for an extra pop of flavor. It adds a lovely herby note that complements the Brie and cranberry.
- Pop the muffin tin in the oven and bake for 10 minutes, or until the crescent dough is golden and the Brie is melted to perfection.
- Serve these delicious bites immediately while they’re warm and gooey. Watch them disappear as your guests come back for seconds (and thirds)!
