Ingredients
- 1 sheet puff pastry dough
- 1 can Bartlett pears in light syrup drained and chopped
- 1 8 oz wedge brie whatever size you can find, simply adjust individual amounts
Keep brie refrigerated until ready to cut.

A pizza cutter works great here.

- Coarsely chop the pears and put a few chunks into the center of each square.
- Cut edges from brie, cube into bite size pieces and place over pear.
- Top each with dried cranberries.
- Bake for 12 to 15 minutes or until puffed and golden brown.
