Ingredients

5 or 6 sheets phyllo dough (based on 18 by 14-inch sheets which are often sold in packs of 18 to 20 for thickness, number 4)
1 cup melted butter
1/4 cup grated Parmesan
1 small wheel brie cheese (about 8 ounces), cut into 16 mini-wedges
16 asparagus tips, blanched

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Make sure phyllo is completely defrosted. Once removed from package, you will need to cover phyllo with waxed paper and a damp towel to prevent it from drying out. Lay out sheet of dough, lightly butter with pastry brush. Fold sheet in half, butter again. Keep re-buttering and folding in half (probably 3 "folds" total) until you have a rectangle with dimensions close to 4 by 4 inches. Cut into 3 sections. Sprinkle Parmesan on each piece of dough. Crumble a bit of brie on each. Lay asparagus tip on top and roll dough around asparagus. The tip of the asparagus should show out of the end. Repeat to make 16 pieces. Lay all pieces out on a cookie sheet. Brush each piece with butter and bake in oven until golden brown. Serve warm.

Too much!
Rated: 3 stars out of 5

These were much too buttery and oily. Perhaps I shouldn't have used a triple cream brie. Should I do this again I would cut... back on the butter, I cup was completely unnecessary, and I would try wrapping them up a bit diferently since the brie just melted out. Also I'd grind some fresh black pepper overthem before rolling them up.Read more

These are simple and taste incredible. I always look for something different to make, I dont have many asparagus recipes.... Everyone loves these every time I make them and everyone asks for the recipe.Read more

lovely but had to tweak it
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

These are the most lovely looking and yummy appetizers. I did tweak these however the second time I made them. When you... bake these the brie just melts and oozes out of the phyllo...however if you broil them on low for about 8 minutes they come out crispy and hot with a nice melty brie on the inside. I love them as did my guests for the past two events I had.Read more
