Sweet & Spicy Cranberry Brie Bites
These Sweet & Spicy Cranberry Brie Bites are the perfect start to a special dinner. Served right out of the oven, these little bundles of sweet, tart, and mildly spicy flavor will bring a smile to your face. The traditional recipe was pimped up by combining my Cranberry Topping, orange zest, fresh rosemary, chopped pecans, and some cayenne pepper. These ingredients are baked atop brie cheese and puff pastry to give these delicious little appetizers a flavorful boost. They can easily be customized to your preference to make them milder or more spicy.
