This holiday season I decided to add another flaky phyllo cup recipe to my arsenal and make these super easy Cranberry Brie Phyllo Bites!

This tasty 3-Ingredient recipe uses store-bought phyllo shells, homemade cranberry sauce, and creamy brie cheese.
Depending on preference, you can add the brie to the top or the bottom of these flaky little phyllo cups. I love them both ways!
No brie cheese? No problem! You can also use melty Havarti cheese in this recipe as a scrumptious swap!

Jenn,
I’m wondering if I couldn’t simplify by putting canned whole berry sauce on top of the brie and baking it all at once… what do you think? Desperate for even quicker and easier!
