Raspberry Brie Bites
"These are the simplest appetizer and are always a huge hit. No one can ever believe that they're so easy to make. You can substitute the raspberry jam for a different flavor jam or even top off with a bit of brown sugar and pecans."

I tried this recipe a couple of ways. It seemed to be lacking a little zip with the brie, so, since I had some, I tried them with cream cheese. The cream cheese added just the right zip with the raspberry. But, I also tried some with lime curd and some with orange marmalade, which were both delicious, but the strength of the flavor of these two masked the extra zip. The zip to counter the sweetness probably isn't necessary with a less sweet fruit. In any case, they are really good and very easy! -
I followed the recipe exactly - using double cream brie and raspberry jam, and they were a huge hit at girls game night. The flavor is very mild. I might try cranberry sauce next time as one reviewer pointed out to give it extra zing! I liked that they were equally good right out of the oven as they were 20 minutes later when just warm. The ladies were impressed with the elegance and the simplicity when I gave them the recipe. Thanks for posting! -
These are wonderful. I have made them many times. My favorite is to use whole berry cranberry sauce. I love the combination of brie and cranberries. And I have tried making them with other types of crusts, and nothing is as good as the phyllo cups.

I love cooking and can't resist trying to figure out what ingredients went into a good meal. I'm not really one for measuring, and usually just make things up as I go along. My brain tends to shut down at the sight of too many ingredients in a recipe (must be A.D.D. or something) so that's something I'm trying to work on. Most of my recipes are quick and easy to make, since I'm usually trying to get dinner out in a hurry. My family is Greek and my husband is Irish, but also lived in Spain for several years, so my cooking tends to reflect those cultures, but in general we're fairly adventurous.

Update: Just got a new camera, so hopefully my pictures will improve drastically. I had been using the camera on my cell. Needless to say the pics weren't great. I'll try retaking any that I've already posted.
