Ingredients

1 sheet puff pastry, thawed
8 ounces brie cheese, cut into bite-sized pieces
1/2 cup cranberry sauce (homemade or store-bought)
1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
Fresh rosemary (optional, for garnish)
Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
On a lightly floured surface, unroll the puff pastry and cut it into squares (approximately 3 inches each).
Place a piece of brie cheese in the center of each square and top with a small spoonful of cranberry sauce. Season with salt and pepper if desired.
Fold the corners over the filling to form pockets and pinch seams tightly to seal.
Brush the tops with beaten egg for color.
Arrange on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for 15-20 minutes until golden brown and puffed.
Let cool slightly before garnishing with fresh rosemary.
