Baked Brie



Baked Brie

List of goodies
1 weel of Brie cheese
1 jar of preserves (I like to use strawberry or apricot, but anything will do)
1 puff pastry sheet (NOT filo) Pepperage Farm has the best ones.

In a round pie pan (or any glass oven safe pan), lay out the thawed pastry sheet.
Place the unwrapped Brie in the center...its ok to leave the white stuff around the cheese (the rind)


Spoon on 1/2 to 2/3 of the preserves on top of cheese.

Gather the pastry around the cheese, starting with opposite corners, pinching the seems closed.

Bake at 350 for 30 minutes, or till browned.
LET IT REST for 5-10 minutes. It is tempting to eat it right away, but dont!
Then just cut into it, spoon into it, whatever you please. The melted cheese and warm preserves just spill out and it is devine! Serve with crackers...my favorite....Keebler Toasteds. And be careful...you could eat the whole thing by yourself...its great leftover for breakfast...not that I have done that or anything....
