Ingredients
  • 1 Puff Pastry Sheet
  • 15 ounces Wheel of Brie
  • 1 Egg
  • 1/3 cup Dried Cherries
  • 1 tablespoon Honey
  • 1 tablespoon Water
  • 1/4 cup Toasted Pecans
  • 1/2 teaspoon Chopped Fresh Rosemary
Directions
  1. Heat the oven to 375 degrees. Beat the egg and water in a small bowl with a fork. Stir together the dried cherries, honey, toasted pecans and rosemary.
  2. Lay the puff pastry on a lightly floured surface. Cut it into a large oval with a knife (reserve the scraps). Spoon the cherry mixture in the center of the puff pastry. Top with the cheese.
  3. . Brush the edge of the oval with egg mixture. Fold the pastry up over the cheese to cover. Trim the excess pastry and press to seal. Brush the seam with the egg mixture. Place seam-side down onto a baking sheet. Decorate the top with the pastry scraps, if desired. Brush with the egg mixture.
  4. Bake for 25-35 minutes or until the pastry is golden brown. Let stand for 30 minutes. Slice and enjoy with crackers or as is.
