Ingredients

2 tubes crescent dough
1 cup cranberry sauce
1 wheel brie cheese, cut into 12 wedges
1 large egg, beaten
1 teaspoon flaky sea salt
1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaf

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Arrange the crescent roll triangles on the prepared baking sheet with the points sticking out, overlapping the bases to form an 8-inch (20 cm) circle.
Spoon the cranberry sauce onto the bases of the crescent dough triangles and top with the brie wedges. Fold the pointed ends of the dough over the cranberry sauce and brie and tuck underneath to seal.
Brush the ring with the beaten egg and sprinkle with the flaky salt and thyme.
Bake for 30 minutes, turning halfway through, or until dark golden brown. Transfer to a platter and serve.
Enjoy!

Categories ARGO®, KARO®, FLEISCHMANN'S®

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 14

Ingredients

3 ½ cups all-purpose flour
¼ cup sugar
1 envelope Fleischmann's® Active Dry or RapidRise Yeast
1 teaspoon salt
¾ cup evaporated milk
¼ cup butter or margarine
¼ cup water
2 large eggs eggs
1 cup finely chopped cranberries
½ cup sugar
1 ½ teaspoons grated orange peel
1 cup powdered sugar, sifted
4 teaspoons evaporated milk, or as needed
½ teaspoon Spice Islands® Pure Vanilla Extract

Steps:

In large bowl, combine 1-1/2 cups flour, sugar, undissolved yeast, and salt. Heat milk, butter, and water until very warm (120 degrees to 130 degrees F). Gradually add to flour mixture; beat 2 minutes at medium speed of electric mixer, scraping bowl occasionally. Add eggs and 1/2 cup flour; beat 2 minutes at high speed, scraping bowl occasionally. With spoon, stir in enough remaining flour to make stiff batter. Cover tightly with plastic wrap; refrigerate 2 to 24 hours.
Cranberry filling: In medium saucepan, combine chopped cranberries, 1/2 cup sugar, and 1 1/2 teaspoons grated orange peel; bring to boil over medium heat. Reduce heat; simmer, stirring frequently, for 5 minutes or until very thick. Remove mixture from heat, and let cool.
Remove dough from refrigerator. Punch dough down. Remove to lightly floured surface. Roll to 21 x 12-inch rectangle. Spread Cranberry Filling over dough to within 1/2 inch of edges. Fold crosswise in thirds, to enclose filling, making a 12 x 7-inch rectangle. Press edges to seal. Cut dough into 12 (1-inch) strips. Holding ends of each strip, twist three times. Pinch together ends of each twisted strip to form wreaths; place on greased baking sheets. Cover; let rise in warm, draft-free place until almost doubled in size, about 30 to 45 minutes.
Bake at 400 degrees F for 12 to 15 minutes or until done, switching positions of sheets halfway through baking time for even browning. Remove wreaths from baking sheets; let cool on wire racks. Frost wreaths with Powdered Sugar Icing, if desired.
Powdered Sugar Frosting: In bowl, combine powdered sugar, 4 to 5 teaspoons evaporated milk, and 1/2 teaspoon SPICE ISLANDS Pure Vanilla Extract. Stir until smooth

Tips:

* Use fresh cranberries for the best flavor and appearance. * If you can't find fresh cranberries, frozen cranberries will work just fine. * Rinse the cranberries before using them to remove any dirt or debris. * Use a sharp knife to cut the cranberries in half. * If you're using a cookie cutter to shape the wreaths, make sure to flour the cookie cutter before cutting out the dough. * Bake the wreaths on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet to prevent them from sticking. * Let the wreaths cool completely before decorating them.

Conclusion:

Cranberry wreaths are a beautiful and delicious way to celebrate the holiday season. They're easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a little creativity, you can create a truly unique and festive wreath that will be the perfect addition to your holiday décor.
