I devised this little warm appetizer mirroring a favorite pizza topping ~ Substituting creamy Ile De France Brie for the Roquefort.
You can use premade phyllo mini shells, or make you own ~(I use premade from the freezer section, and crisp them in a 350*(F) oven.)
Place a 1/2-inch cube of Brie or Camembert cheese in each cup. Return to the oven for a few moments, allowing the cheese to melt.
Remove from oven, add 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon of something sweet! Your favorite fruit chutney, fig jam/spread, apricot jam, (a wee drizzle of flavorful honey or pure maple syrup, maybe?) on top of the melted cheese.
Form small, thin slices of prosciutto into rose shapes, placing one rose atop the cheese & chutney/fruit spread. (I make these while the cheese is melting in the tart shells in the oven and set them aside until the tarts are ready for assembly.)
They are so cute how could I not love them? And w/ J's prosciutto?
ReplyDeleteThank you!
They are too pretty to eat, but I bet if you invited me over I could manage to devour lots of them.
ReplyDeleteOh, Mari...these are just beautiful. Gorgeous. And given the flavors involved, I'm 100% sure they're delicious. Wouldn't this be a perfect hors d'oeuvre for Mother's Day?
ReplyDeleteThank you for these...I have a feeling I'm going to just come back and LOOK at them once in a while.

ReplyDeleteMari, these are gorgeous! (I use that word a lot, don't I?? I can't help it - everything you make is... gorgeous!! ;) ) I love the simplicity of these little bites. Perfect!
ReplyDeleteOh, yum!!
ReplyDeleteThese look ALMOST too pretty to eat, but they certainly look too delicious to not eat! laurie
ReplyDeleteyum...several years ago the cheese person (have no idea if there is a name for that role) at wild oats shared some fig spread with brie...I've been hooked ever since. I've shared it with others and they think yuck and that always turns to yum...
ReplyDeletesuch a good mixture! I so enjoy both brie and prosciutto...
ReplyDeletethese will be on my next savory treats dish!

Hi Mari, I am catching up, your Greek style shrimp and rice salad looks and sounds delicious and these little rose brie, prosciutto and chutney tarts are perfect. Kathy.
ReplyDeleteMary, those tarts looks so pretty I would not want to eat them! Wow, I bet they're as yummy as they look! You are an incredible cook! I might have to joint you for dinner one of these days.... ;)
