This timeless appetizer is one of the easiest and most elegant dishes you could ever serve to your guests! Ingredients:
1/2 package puff pastry, thawed as directed |
1 round or wedge of brie cheese |
3 tablespoons of jelly or jam, of choice |
1 egg mixed with 1 tablespoon of water for glazing |
crackers for serving |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees
2. Lather the jelly or jam on top of the brie before or after you cook it, your choice!
3. Cut pastry into a circle large enough to hold the brie and to come up on the sides
4. Cut another circle of pastry to fit the top
5. Pinch the two together, and using the scraps, cut strips and braid them around the edge to cover the seams
6. Whisk the egg well with the water and brush it on the brie to help seal the seams. Also gives it a great glow when done!
7. Place the brie in the preheated oven and bake about 30-40 minutes
8. The cheese may ooze out a little, it still tastes good!
9. Serve within 30 minutes of baking for best flavor of the cheese
