this is another version of the baked brie I have already listed Ingredients:
15 oz round brie, place in the freezer for 15 minutes before using |
1/4 cup chopped pecans or walnuts |
1/4 cup packed brown sugar |
1/2 tsp cinnamon |
package frozen puff pastry, thawed |
1 egg |
1 tbsp heavy cream |
Directions:
1. carefully cut the brie horizontally through the center, splitting the cheese into two rounds. set aside
2. in a medium bowl, mix together the pecans, brown sugar and cinnamon.
3. unfold one sheet of puff pastry flat on the counter. set one of the brie rounds, cut side up, in the center of the pastry. spread the nut mixture over the brie, then set the second half of the cheese, cut side down on top
4. cut 1 inch off the corners of the pastry to form a rough circle, and then fold the pastry up the sides of the brie
5. place a second sheet of pastry over the top, then cut away any excess, leaving just enough pastry for the two sheets to meet. Using your fingers, crimp the pastry sheets together making sure it is completely sealed.
6. at this point, the cheese can be refrigerated for several hours until ready to bake, or wrapped tightly in plastic and frozen. If frozen, place the cheese in the refrigerator to that about 12 hours before baking.
7. when reay to bake, preheat oven to 425. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper
8. In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and cream. Use a pastry brush to brush the sides and top of the pastry with the egg mixture. If desired scraps of pastry can be rolled out and cut in decorative shapes and placed on top.
