Ingredients
- 1 sheet frozen puff pastry (package comes with 2 sheets)
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1/4 cup chopped pecans or walnuts
- 1 small (8-ounce) wheel Brie
- 1/2 cup raspberry jam
- 2 eggs, beaten
Directions
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
Defrost 1 sheet of puff pastry for approximately 15 to 20 minutes and unfold (place remaining sheet in freezer for later use). Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Saute nuts in butter until golden brown, approximately 5 minutes. Place nuts on top of Brie and spread jam on top of nuts. Gently roll pastry with a rolling pin to increase the size of the sheet 1 to 2 inches in each direction. Brush both sides of the sheet with beaten egg. Center the wheel of Brie on top of the pastry sheet. Bring all four corners of the sheet together above Brie and twist slightly to form a "bundle." Tie gathered pastry with kitchen/cooking string (tie string in the form of a bow), arranging pastry until you are satisfied with the "bundle" shape. Place "bundle" on an ungreased cookie sheet and bake for 20 to 25 minutes until pastry is golden brown. Serve with top-quality crackers.

A mouthful of pure deliciousness as well as a feast for the eyes!
I found that the amount of butter called for to brown the nuts (I used pecans which cook very, very quickly so watch them carefullywas a bit too mcuh so I would use less next time (and there will be a next time! Also - the recipe says to bake at 350 and the video says to bake at 375 so there's a contradiction here. I baked the brie at 350 but it still looked pale so I baked it an extra 10 minutes. Thank you, Paula!
