These easy, delicious Raspberry Brie Bites will steal the show at your Academy Awards viewing party! Everyone will want the recipe!
Raspberry Brie Bites
My absolute favorite baked brie (ignore the appalling, shadowy photos!!!) is topped with fresh raspberries, jam and a bit of rosemary before being wrapped in buttery puff pastry and baked. When I have leftovers from a party, Bill is delighted to help himself to a pre-dinner nibble. Not a crumb ever goes to waste. With the Academy Awards approaching, I dreamed about a bite sized version. My first attempt was with puff pastry shells, but they were a greasy mess. Tasty, but not ideal for finger food.
Wonton Skins to the Rescue
I took a cue from my Mini Mexican Tarts and utilized wonton skins for the shells. Lightly oiling the mini muffin tin helped the exteriors brown and made for an easy release. Mine may have been underbaked slightly, but they still tasted marvelous. Adjust your baking time so that your shells are golden. I divided my Brie into 12 even-ish pieces that were small enough to fit in the base of the shells. The cheese was easily molded when necessary. Topped with a dollop of doctored up jam and baked till browned, these cheesy nibbles made for an easy elegant starter. This small batch recipe disappeared in record time. I know you’ll be happily surprised at this extraordinary flavor combination!!
