Fig & Brie Puff Pastry Bites

Ingredients

1 sheet frozen puff pastry, thawed according to package instructions

4 ounces Brie cheese, chilled and cut into 24 pieces

1 cup fig jam

Directions

1.       Preheat the oven to 425°F and lightly flour a work surface. On the surface, roll out your thawed puff pastry sheet into a 10-by-15-inch rectangle. Cut the dough into 24 (2½-inch) squares using a knife or, even easier, a pizza wheel—4 rows of 6 squares each.

2.       In a muffin tin coated with nonstick cooking spray, press a square of dough into each cup of the tin. Add one Brie piece to each cup and top each with about 2 teaspoons of fig jam. Bake for about 8 minutes or until the puff pastry is golden brown.

3.       Once out of the oven, let the pastry bites cool before you pop them out of their muffin tins.
