2 Remove partially baked shells from oven. Spoon 1/4 teaspoon spreadable fruit over cheese in each shell.
3 Return to oven; bake an additional 2 to 3 minutes or until spreadable fruit is melted. Serve warm.

Expert Tips

Instead of raspberry, use your favorite fruit spread; try strawberry or apricot.

There is no need to thaw the frozen fillo shells; simply arrange them on a cookie sheet, fill and bake. The Brie is baked in the fillo shells first, without the fruit spread, because the cheese bubbles up as it melts. The fruit spread is spooned over the melted Brie so the fruit will stay inside the shells when they are heated a second time.

For a surprising bit of flavor and texture, place a walnut half underneath Brie cheese. Just before serving, garnish the tarts with tiny mint leaves.

These were quick and easy and a crowd pleaser. Although next time I would use much less preserves, the raspberry overwhelmed the taste of brie.

This is perfect for an additional appetizer at a party. It can be made quickly even at the very last minute when you find out you are short of a little something extra for a dinner party. The brie/raspberry/tartlet combination is yummy and they are a nice tiny size for easy handling. Recipe makes 30 which is perfect for a party of about 15-20 adults. The recipe, one batch, exactly fits on a cookie sheet, so for more just plan on another cookie sheet or have another one made up in the frig that can go in a little later.

This was the EASIEST recipe ever. It was very elegant. My daughter ate her weight in these. I think it would also be good with pepper jelly.
