Ingredients
1 sheet frozen puff pastry, thawed according to package instructions
4 ounces brie cheese, chilled and cut into 24 pieces
1 cup cranberry sauce
Directions
Preheat oven to 400°F. Coat a 24-cup mini muffin tin generously with nonstick cooking spray.
Lightly flour a work surface; roll puff pastry dough into a 10-by-15-inch rectangle. Cut the dough into 24 (2½-inch) squares using a knife or pizza wheel (you'll end up with 4 rows of 6 squares each).
Press a square of dough into each cup of the prepared muffin tin. Add 1 brie piece to each cup. Top each with 2 teaspoons cranberry sauce. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 15 minutes.
Remove plastic wrap. Bake until the cheese is melted and the pastry is golden, 16 to 18 minutes. Let cool for 10 minutes in the tin before removing.
