Method
 

Preparation Steps
  1. Begin by gathering all your ingredients, ensuring you have the creamy spinach dip, brie cheese, phyllo cups, and cranberry sauce ready to go. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Chop fresh herbs for garnish.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine your creamy spinach dip ingredients, blending until smooth. Set aside.
  3. Carefully fill the phyllo cups with creamy spinach dip and sprinkle with herbs or cheese. Alternatively, roll out the pizza dough, cut it into strips, and wrap it around mini cheese bites or turkey bits.
  4. Arrange the filled phyllo cups and dough-wrapped bites on a baking sheet. Bake for about 20 minutes, or until golden and bubbly.
  5. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly. Arrange on a platter and garnish with fresh herbs.
