Baked Brie - pastry sheet

Method

• Even before you begin, youll need to let the sheet of puff pastry thaw on the counter.
• Take it out of the packaging, and keep it folded on the counter to thaw.
• Itll take about 40 minutes.
• If you start to unfold it and it kind of cracks, let it sit a little longer.
• You could also use some water or an egg wash to seal up any cracks.
• 1.
• Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F.
• 2.
• Unwrap the brie.
• With a knife, remove the outer casing.
• You can always leave this on, but I dont really like it ... so I take it off.
• 3.
• When the casing is off, place the brie in the center of the puff pastry sheet.
• 4.
• Take each corner of the puff pastry sheet and bring it to the middle of the brie to wrap it.
• Seal up the brie as best you can with the sheet.
• 5.
• Flip it so the folds are facing down and place on a greased cookie sheet.
• You dont have to overly grease the sheet; you can use a non-stick cooking spray.
• Also, if you prefer, you CAN leave the cheese to bake with the folds facing up, but I didnt do that.
• 6.
• Bake for 35 minutes or until the puff pastry is golden brown.
• 7.
• Transfer it carefully to a plate or a serving platter.
• Serve with bagel chips, melba toast, fruit preserves or whatever you please.
• Itll definitely be a crowd pleaser!
