Kennedy Favorites, Baked Brie

Baked Brie
Quick & Easy

This is a fun appetizer to use throughout the holidays. I got it from my Sister-in-law, Diane after she brought it to a Christmas Brunch. Since then, I have made it several times and it never fails to get the best reactions! It is so easy and SO delicious served with apples. Thanks again for sharing, Di!!

1 17oz. package of frozen Puff Pastry, thawed
15 oz. wheel of Brie
1/2 cup chopped Pecans
1/2 cup brown Sugar
1 Egg beaten with 1 Tbsp. Cream or Water

Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
Place 1 sheet of the pastry on a cookie sheet lined with parchment or wax paper.
Cut the brie in half horizontally and place bottom half on the sheet of pastry.
In a small bowl mix the pecans and sugar. Spread the mixture on your brie and top with other half (making it like a sandwich).
Place second sheet of pastry on top of brie. Cut away excess dough and seal top half to bottom half, leaving no openings in the seam. You can use the extra dough to decorate the top if you like.
Brush the top and sides with the egg wash.
Bake for 20-25 minutes or until your dough is golden brown and puffy. Allow to cool before cutting. Serve with sliced apples.
