Bourbon Pecan Brie Bites- only 5 ingredients and 15 minutes needed to make this easy southern appetizer that’s both sweet and spicy. The creamy goodness of brie cheese tastes so good melted in a flaky phyllo cup. Bring these to a party and they will disappear in a flash. I especially love this bite-sized appetizer for a Kentucky Derby Party since they are flavored with bourbon. They are also great for a Christmas or New Year’s Party.

They come 15 to a box. If you want to make 30, just double the ingredients. Brie Cheese– You don’t need much. Cut the rind away if you wish and cut it into little squares that will fit in the bottom of the phyllo cups. Chopped Pecans– chop them fairly small. You can use walnuts if you prefer. Hot Honey– There are so many brands of Hot Honey on the market now. Mike’s Hot Honey is probably the most widely available. Bourbon– I use Maker’s Mark, but use whichever is your favorite. You only need about a tablespoon. Variations This recipe is so easy to change up and customize. Use walnuts or macadamia nuts in place of pecans. Use cream cheese or blue cheese in place of brie cheese. Use regular honey or maple syrup if you don’t want it spicy. Want it spicy but don’t have Hot Honey? Add a little cayenne pepper or a few crushed red pepper flakes to regular honey. Use Fireball Whisky in place of bourbon for a little hot cinnamon flavor. Add a little fresh rosemary or thyme for extra flavor. Recipe Tips They can also be made in an air fryer. Air fry at 300 for 3 to 5 minutes. Best eaten shortly after they are baked. The phyllo shells get soggy over time so they don’t keep well.
