Almond Apricot and Brie Phyllo Cups 

Even better than a dinner party is a cocktail party. Sure, the cocktails play a role in this opinion of mine, but what I really love about a good cocktail party is the appetizers. Being a food blogger, I can’t help myself. I love all the different bites of flavor worth trying once, or twice, or in the case of today’s recipe, about ten times!
