Ingredients

2 sheets puff pastry (One 17.3 ounce box)
1 8-ounce round brie cheese cut into 32 cubes
1/2 cup fig jam
8 slices bacon cooked and crumbled

2 sheets puff pastry
Starting with one puff pastry sheet, open the folds so you have one large square.
Use a pizza cutter or sharp knife to cut the large square into 16 smaller squares.
Repeat with the second sheet.
Press squares into the greased muffin tin.
Top each square with a piece of brie cheese, 1/2 teaspoon fig jam and crumbled bacon.
1 8-ounce round brie cheese, 1/2 cup fig jam, 8 slices bacon
Bake for 14-16 minutes or until the pastry is golden brown.
Remove from the muffin pan and top with a rosemary sprig or finely chopped rosemary, if desired.
fresh rosemary
Serve warm.

Notes

Make sure the pan is well-greased before adding the puff pastry! You don't want them stuck to the pans! A mini silicone muffin pan works really well for these.

If your puff pastry has thawed completely, pop the pan into the freezer for 20-30 minutes before baking. This will help the pastry puff up really nicely!

Freeze the creamy brie cheese for awhile before cutting so it's not as sticky.

These are best served warm immediately after baking, while the gooey cheesiness is in its prime!
