- 1 package puff pastry buy frozen and thaw for use
- 16 oz Brie wheels or wedges
Instructions

- Mix the fresh fruit and jam. You may need to mix your jam first to break it down if it's been refrigerated.1/2 cup apricot jam, 1/2 cup cherries
- Then add your cherries and Cheerwine syrup, and mix with a spoon or spatula to blend.1 tbsp Cheerwine Syrup
- Cut your puff pastry. It's easiest to slice each sheet of thawed pastry into four rows of four squares. Then drop one square into a prepared muffin pan. Use baking spray or melted butter to grease each cup.1 package puff pastry
- Divide your brie. Cut each wheel of brie into cubes. You can remove the rind of the wheel if it's not to your liking, but you might want to freeze the cheese before removing it so it will slice without smearing.16 oz Brie
- Drop a cube of brie onto each square and top with a teaspoonful of your fruit and jam mixture. You can get creative and add shaved almonds or crushed walnuts, too, if you like pastry with a crunch!
- Drop the muffin trays into your preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the corners of your puff pastry begin to turn golden brown.
- Remove your muffin pans from the oven and let them sit to cool.
- Once they've rested, remove and serve!
