Instructions

Preheat oven to 375° (180°C). Lightly grease a mini muffin tin with cooking spray.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out crescent dough and pinch together seams. Cut into equal 24 squares. Place squares into muffin tin holes.
Cut brie into 24 small pieces and place inside the dough cups.
Top as follows:
CRANBERRY BRIE BITES:
A spoonful of cranberry sauce. Season with salt and pepper.
MAPLE BACON:
A spoonful of cooked diced bacon, 2 pecan halves and a drizzle of maple syrup. Season with pepper.
APRICOT WALNUT:
A spoonful of preserves and crushed walnuts. Season with a pinch of salt.
GARLIC BUTTER HERB:
MIX the butter and garlic together. Top each bite with just over 1 teaspoonful of garlic butter mixture and 2-3 rosemary leaves. Season with salt and pepper.
Bake until the crescent pastry is golden, (about 10-15 minutes).

Notes

CRESCENT DOUGH: roll pastry out into a 10 x 14-inch rectangle. Cut the sheet lengthwise into 6 even strips, then crosswise into 4 even strips. You should have 24 squares. Separate and press each square of pastry gently into each muffin cup.

PUFF PASTRY: Use 2 sheets of semi-thawed puff pastry. (Semi-thawed is easier to cut.) Cut each pastry sheet lengthwise into 3 even strips. Then crosswise into 4 even slices. You should have 12 pieces per puff pastry sheet (24 in total).

BRIE: Make sure to cut the Brie into 24 equal pieces (about 3/4-inch or 2cm pieces).
