1

Heat oven to 375°F. Line large cookie sheet with cooking parchment paper.
2

Remove dough from 1 can; do not unroll. Using serrated knife, cut dough into 12 rounds. Repeat with second can of dough. Flatten rounds to about 2-inch circles.
3

Using photo as a guide, arrange 9 rounds in a circle, spacing slightly apart, on cookie sheet. Arrange remaining rounds around outer edge of first circle, spacing slightly apart. Gently press and flatten middle of each round.
4

Bake 12 to 14 minutes or until light golden brown; remove from oven. Fold cheese pieces in half, and place 1 onto center of each dough round. Bake 3 to 4 minutes or until dough is fully baked and cheese is starting to soften.
5

Remove from oven; immediately top center of each with about 1 teaspoon cranberry sauce. Serve warm.

Brie cheese is often sold in a round shape with a signature white exterior, or rind. The rind does not need to be trimmed before using in this recipe.
Brie is a melty cheese and needs only a few minutes in the oven to soften; any longer, and the cheese might ooze out onto the baking pan. We recommend folding the cheese in half before adding to the crescent dough to make sure the cheese stays on top.
Swap the whole berry cranberry sauce called for in this recipe for your own homemade version (or a portion of our Instant Pot™ Cranberry Sauce), if desired.
