OK, I'm giving this four stars because I can imagine it being much better if I'd followed the recipe as written and because my guests really enjoyed the dish. I did it in the individual phyllo cups and thoguht it was too pastry-y. I did however use a seedless raspberry jam that squeezed out of the bottle like ketchup or something and that made the little individual baked bries easier. I liked the concept, just not the taste as much as i thought I would. They were however very convenient to make ahead of time and just pop into the oven. A very pretty appetizer, too.

Super awesome. I ommitted the ranch and used marinated artichoke hearts. This was very popular at my get-together and I only had leftovers because I ran out of the toasted baguette I served it with. The leftovers were awesome in a griled cheese sandwich with the ball spread where the cheese would usually be. Very yummy.

Totally underestimated the amount of basil I would need. These were really awesome, though. Rave reviews....
