Strawberry Brie Puff Pastry Ingredients:
1 frozen puff pastry sheet
16 oz. brie
1 egg
¼ cup strawberry jam
2 T. powdered sugar
Board Directions:
Place Strawberry Brie Puff Pastry in the middle of your board, then surround it with the chocolate-covered fruit, puppy chow, pretzels, and cookies. Serve with your favorite crackers or crusty bread.
Strawberry Brie Puff Pastry Directions:
Set the frozen puff pastry out to thaw for 20 minutes. Preheat the oven to 400°F. On a floured surface, unfold the partially-thawed pastry. Using a rolling pin, roll to approximately 14 inches long, dusting with flour as needed. Using a 2- or 3-inch heart-shaped cookie cutter, cut out a heart in the middle of the pastry. Place brie in the center of the puff pastry atop the cutout and trim an inch off the corners. Fold the pastry over the cheese to cover it, tucking as needed. In a small dish, beat the egg to create an egg wash. Brush egg onto the pastry to coat. Flip the pastry-wrapped brie over so the ends are underneath and the pastry heart cutout is on top. Fill the heart with the strawberry jam. Bake 25 minutes or until golden; allow to stand 10 minutes before serving. Sprinkle with powdered sugar.
