I made this a few months ago and plan to make it again for Easter. It's easy and delicious, it will wow anyone you have over, plus they think you took a lot of time to make it. ;) It's a Paula Deen recipe so you know it's not figure friendly recipe. Just eat it on special occasions. You can find the original recipe on foodnetwork.com. I've made this recipe exactly what it calls for but you can always change it up bit and add fruit like blueberries. Mmmm! You'll have rave reviews every time you make this.
What you need:
- 1 sheet frozen puff pastry, pre-packaged
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 1/2 cup walnuts
- 1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 (8-ounce) wheel Brie
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 egg, beaten
- Crackers, for serving (optional)
1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
2. Defrost puff pastry for about 15 mins.
3. In a pan, melt the butter, add the walnuts into the butter until golden brown, only a few mins, no longer than 5 mins.
4. Take walnuts off the heat and add cinnamon, stir until walnuts are coated well.
5. Place the Brie in a bowl and add the walnut mixture on top and sprinkle the brown sugar over the mixture.
6. Lay the puff pastry out on a flat surface, then place the brie in the center of the pastry. Gather up the edges of the pastry, pressing around the brie and gather at the top. Gently squeeze together the excess dough. Brush a beaten egg over top and side of Brie. Place Brie on a cookie sheet and bake for 20 minutes until pastry is golden brown.
You can serve it with crackers but I like it usually without. Enjoy!
