A mini muffin pan can help the bites hold their shape and contain some of the melted cheese.
Lightly grease the pan before adding the wrapped bites.
Can I use another type of cheese?
Camembert is a good alternative because it has a similar soft texture.
Other cheeses can work too, although the texture and melting behavior will be different.
How do I know when the bites are done?
The crescent dough should be puffed and golden brown.
If it still looks pale or doughy, continue baking for a few more minutes.
Perfect for Holidays and Entertaining
These little Brie bites have holiday appetizer written all over them.
They’re warm.
They’re flaky.
They’re creamy.
And they look absolutely beautiful piled onto a serving platter.
I especially love serving them alongside cranberry sauce or fig preserves because the colors look so pretty together.
But you don’t need a special occasion to make them.
They’re just as good for a weekend brunch or a cozy evening at home.
Sometimes the best recipes are the ones that don’t require a reason!!
