Delight your guests with the irresistible elegance of Brie Crisps — a quick yet sophisticated appetizer that combines buttery, flaky phyllo dough with the creamy richness of brie cheese. These bite-sized treats are elevated by a drizzle of golden honey, a scattering of tangy dried cranberries, and the nutty crunch of chopped pistachios, creating a perfect harmony of flavors and textures. Garnished with a touch of fresh thyme for an aromatic finish, these crisps bake to perfection in under 10 minutes, making them a stress-free addition to any party or gathering. Ideal for holiday entertaining or as an upscale snack, this crowd-pleasing recipe turns simple ingredients into a stunning display of gourmet indulgence.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Lay out one sheet of phyllo dough on a clean, flat surface. Brush it lightly with melted butter, covering the entire sheet.
Place a second sheet of phyllo dough on top of the first, aligning the edges, and brush it with melted butter. Repeat this process until all 6 sheets are stacked and buttered.
Using a sharp knife or a pizza cutter, slice the stacked phyllo dough into 12 equal squares and carefully transfer them to the prepared baking sheet.
Cut the brie cheese into small cubes (approximately 1-inch pieces) and place one piece in the center of each phyllo square.
Drizzle a small amount of honey (about 1/4 teaspoon per square) over the brie on each phyllo square.
Top each square with a sprinkle of dried cranberries and chopped pistachios. Add a light garnish of fresh thyme leaves if desired.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the phyllo dough is golden brown and crisp, and the brie is melted.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Serve warm as a delightful appetizer or snack.
