Best Brie Crescents Recipes

GOOEY BRIE CRESCENT WRAP

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper.
• Remove the crescent rolls from the packages and separate into individual triangles. Place an upturned bowl on the prepared sheet pan and arrange the crescent triangles in a circular star shape around it, with the pointed ends furthest away from the bowl and the thicker ends nearest the bowl, slightly overlapping. Press the overlapping dough to flatten.
• Spread the cranberry preserves onto the dough around the center nearest the bowl and top with the Brie pieces, half the pistachios and half of the dried cranberries. Remove the bowl from the center and fold the pointed ends of the crescent rolls up and over the filling, tucking the tip of each under the base to secure. Brush the top with the beaten egg and sprinkle over the rosemary and flaky salt if using. Bake until golden and gooey, 18 to 20 minutes.
• Drizzle the top of the wreath with the honey. Garnish with the remaining dried cranberries and pistachios and rosemary sprigs. Sprinkle with flaky salt if desired. Allow to cool slightly before transferring the wreath to a board. Serve with a cheese knife to slice and enjoy.

FESTIVE BAKED BRIE BITES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Cube each wheel of Brie into 12 pieces. They do not need to be perfect cubes. Set aside.
• Mix the cranberries and pistachios together in a small bowl. Set aside.
• Lightly dust a cutting board with flour. Unroll the crescent dough (it should be an 8-by-12-inch sheet) onto the dusted surface. Using a knife, cut 4 lines down the 8-inch side and 6 across on the 12-inch side to get 24 squares.
• Place a cube of Brie in the center of each dough square. Sprinkle about 1/2 teaspoon of the pistachio and cranberry mixture over the top of each cube of Brie. Fold the corners of each square together, lightly pinching to seal everything in. Transfer the bites to the prepared baking sheet.
• Whisk together the egg and 1 tablespoon water in a small bowl and brush the top of each bite with the egg wash. Sprinkle each with a little rosemary and a bit of sea salt. Bake until golden brown, 12 to 14 minutes. Let cool for 2 to 3 minutes.
• Carefully transfer the bites to a serving platter. Scatter the pomegranate seeds around the bites, drizzle with honey and frame the platter with rosemary sprigs for color and festive fun. Enjoy!
