Main Ingredients
- 1 sheet puff pastry (thawed) Ensure pastry is completely thawed for easier rolling.
- 4 oz Brie cheese (rind removed and cut into cubes) Choose a high-quality Brie for best flavor.

Method
Preparation
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a mini muffin tin or line it with paper liners.
- Roll out the puff pastry on a lightly floured surface. Use a 2-inch round cutter to cut out 24 circles. Re-roll scraps as needed.
- Press each pastry circle into the muffin tin wells to form small cups.
- Place a cube of Brie in each cup. Top with about ½ teaspoon of cranberry sauce. Sprinkle with a pinch of salt and pepper.
- Brush the pastry edges with beaten egg for a golden finish.
Baking
- Bake for 12–15 minutes or until the pastry is puffed and golden brown. Let cool for 2 minutes before removing from the tin.
- Garnish with thyme leaves or pistachios if desired. Serve warm.
