This recipe was in our local newspaper several years ago. This is a nice appetizer to serve during the holidays. I like to make it for New Year's Eve.

Time 40m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 (8 ounce) can crescent roll dough (or 8 oz. can dough sheet)
1 (8 ounce) round brie cheese
1/4 cup whole berry cranberry sauce
1 egg, beaten
fresh berries (to garnish) (optional)
sliced fruit (to garnish) (optional)

Steps:

  • Unroll crescent-roll dough onto a clean work surface. Separate dough into 4 rectangles. Press 2 rectangles together to make a square; repeat so you end up with 2 squares.
  • Cut corners from both squares to make rounds, reserving the extra dough. Place 1 dough round on a greased cookie sheet.
  • Slice cheese horizontally into 2 layers. Place bottom half on dough on cookie sheet. Spread with cranberry sauce. Place other half on top. Top with second dough round, pressing and pinching to seal.
  • With medium or small cookie cutter, cut shape or shapes from reserved dough corners. Place cutouts on top of cheese round; brush with beaten egg.
  • Bake at 350 degrees for 35 minutes, or until deep golden brown. Let cool. Serve alone or garnished with fresh berries and cut fruit.
