Bourbon Pecan Brie Bites

 
Ingredients:
 
1/4 cup chopped pecans
2 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon bourbon
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 package puff pastry thawed
1 lb brie
 
Directions:
 
Heat butter in medium saucepan and add the pecans and bourbon.  Toast pecans slightly and then set aside to cool.  Lay out puff pastry on a cutting board and using a 2 1/2 inch cookie cutter, cut out rounds of puff pastry.  I got about 16 rounds out of the two pastries, which made 8 bites.  Lay 8 of the rounds on a greased cookie sheet.  Place about 1 tablespoon round of brie in the middle of each pastry.  Top with the browned pecans and some sugar.  Lay another round of pastry on top and using a fork, seal the edges.  Repeat with remaining pastry.  Brush with egg and bake for 20-25 minutes until brown.

    Recipe looks delicious. I'm making these as an appetizer for valentines day. I was getting ready to put them in the oven when I realized I can't seem to find a baking temp :/
    I'm going to go with 350 and hope for the best!

This weeks menu includes: Meatloaf with Rosemary Potatoes Honey Sesame Chicken w/ Broccoli White Chicken Chili Beer & Beef Stew Beef Stroganoff Chop and prepare all vegetables and set aside.    Label all bags with recipe title, date, additional ingredients, cook times, etc.   All meals will cook fine from frozen, but be sure not to add cold/frozen meals into a hot crockpot as it can crack. Many people have concerns about putting frozen food in the crockpot, but I have never had an issue. It is my understanding that
