Cranberry Brie bites are a low-effort, high-reward recipe. They really save the day when you’re juggling a ton of other holiday dishes and need to put out something easy for guests to snack on.

Ingredients

2 tubes (8 ounces each) refrigerated crescent rolls
6 ounces Brie cheese, rind removed
1 cup whole-berry cranberry sauce
1/2 cup chopped pecans

Directions

Preheat oven to 375°. Unroll 1 tube of crescent dough into 1 long rectangle; press perforations to seal. Cut into 24 pieces; lightly press each piece onto the bottom and up sides of an ungreased mini-muffin cup. Repeat with remaining crescent dough.
Place about 1 rounded teaspoon cheese in each cup; top with cranberry sauce and sprinkle with pecans. Bake 10-15 minutes or until golden brown. Serve warm.
