This creamy appetizer has double the cheese with blue cheese and brie melted in the oven and wrapped in puff pastry.

Ingredients

  • 1 C. walnuts
  • 1 C. crumbled blue cheese
  • 1 wheel brie
  • 1 sheet pastry dough
  • 1 egg, beaten with 1 Tbs. water

Directions

Chop walnuts (depending on the size of brie you need to cover) and stir into crumbled blue cheese. Press onto the top of the brie and carefully wrap a sheet of thawed puff pastry dough (roll out to size needed).

Use fingers wet with cold water to seal underside of pastry. Cut off excess to make cut-outs and adhere to top of brie with a little cold water. Brush with egg mixture.

Bake on a cookie sheet covered with baking parchment in a 375 degree oven for about 20 minutes until golden. (Parchment makes it simple to transfer brie to serving dish.) Let Baked Brie stand for 20-30 minutes before cutting to let it firm up.
