Baked Brie

Course Appetizer

Ingredients
  

  • 1 small round Brie
  • 1/2 cup chopped dried cranberries
  • 1/2 cup chopped walnuts
  • 1 egg beaten with 1 tsp water (egg wash)
  • 1 sheet puff pastry

Instructions
 

  • Slice Brie in half using string as a knife (2 layers)
    NOTE: Brie should be placed into a freezer for about an hour before assembling, this is to prevent Brie from drying out before the puff pastry is browned in the oven
  • Press cranberries and walnuts into bottom half and replace top of Brie
  • Roll pastry sheet to encompass the round of stuffed Brie
  • Place Brie on top of pastry and bring edges together on top (pat down a bit) and turn Brie over and place on parchment lined edged cookie sheet. (At this point if you want to get decorative...you can cut out shapes to place on top before brushing with egg wash) I put little tiny balls of puff pastry to resemble Christmas ornaments.
  • Brush the top of puff pastry with egg wash and place in 425 oven for about 20 minutes until top is nicely golden brown.
  • Serve immediately with crackers, fruit etc.
