December 31, 2018 By Patricia 38 Comments

Easy Brie and Cherry Puff Pastry Squares will be the ace up your sleeve when it comes to easy appetizers. These are perfect when friends come calling during the holiday season and beyond!

Take one or two of these Easy Brie and Cherry Puff Pastry Squares!

From the holidays to book club to football games, appetizers set the scene. Whatever your scene, you’re probably busy like me, and I say the easier to pull together a delicious appetizer, the better. Easy Brie and Cherry Puff Pastry Squares have you covered! 

Thinking about holiday dinners (and pre-dinner noshing) sometimes throws me into a whirl. Everything always works out (my husband does most of the main-dish cooking – hooray!), but that doesn’t stop my anxiety. I’m always thinking, “What will everyone love? When will I find the time to make something fab? I need more time!” 

Perfectly delicious and easy to make, Easy Brie and Cherry Puff Pastry Squares are great for a gathering!

These puff pastry appetizers are perfect for your New Year’s Eve fun! They’re flaky and so tasty. With barely any prep work or clean up, you couldn’t ask for anything better. In fact, as I started to make these, I had to send my husband out on a grocery errand. By the time he got back, they had just finished baking.

Who wouldn't love a plate of these delicious appetizers? Easy Brie and Cherry Puff Pastry Squares are easy to make and they're delicious!

Easy Brie and Cherry Puff Pastry Squares are a treat: the pastry is the perfectly puffy cover for the creamy Brie and sweet preserves. For a fresh, earthy touch, I added a bit of fresh rosemary in the mixture. Can I just say, mmm!

Ingredients

  • 1 package puff pastry (2 sheets), thawed
  • 2 ounces cherry preserves
  • 4-5 ounces Brie cheese, cut into thin pieces
  • 1-1/2 teaspoon fresh rosemary leaves, cut into small pieces
  • 1 egg white
  • All-purpose flour for dusting the work surface

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Sprinkle the flour over a flat work surface.
  2. Unfold the pastry and cut each sheet into equal thirds, lengthwise (along the fold lines), then cut in three equal rows, widthwise, to form nine squares for each sheet.
  3. One by one, place about a teaspoon (or a bit more) of the cherry preserves in the center of nine squares. Spread it out slightly with a spoon, but not to the edges.
  4. Sprinkle a bit of the rosemary over the preserves, and top with a slice of Brie (you’ll want the cheese to cover most of the preserves so you may use a bit more, if needed).
  5. Place a remaining square of pastry over each. Press the edges together slightly with your fingers, then use a fork to seal the edges tightly, all the way around each square.
  6. Brush the tops of each square with the egg white. Place them on a baking sheet, 2 inches apart. Use a sharp knife to cut two small vents into the top of each square.
  7. Bake at 400 degrees F. for 15-20 minutes, or until the tops are golden.

    This is perfect! I was just looking for a brie recipe for Thanksgiving appetizer that is a little different than the usual baked brie. This one is even better because I love cherries!

    I make a similar version of this, but haven't used rosemary - that sounds like an amazing addition. These are a must-make for Thanksgiving this year!

      Good catch! So sorry for the oversight - updating now, but the oven temp should be 400 degrees F.

    I get so frustrated when looking for comments only to read ‘looks amazing...can’t wait to try these, etc.) So, in short, out of 9 comments not one person actually made and tasted them. Disappointed!

I try to make each meal memorable with my recipes for mainly meatless, mostly healthy, and easy-to-make dishes (with sweet treats in between).
