Baked Brie in Puff Pastry with Almonds
1/2 package frozon puff pastry, thawed
1 (8 ounce) package brie cheese, round
1/8 cup toasted almonds, slices (optional)
Preheat oven to 425.
Lightly grease cookie sheet.
Roll puff pastry out slightly.
Place cheese wheel on top (leave rind on).
Place almonds on top of preseves.
Bundle Puff Pastry up and around the cheese.
Bake for 20-25 minutes.
Let cool for five minutes.
Serve with your favorite crackers.
I read in the comments with this on Recipe Zaar that someone did this with honey and walnuts on top of the brie instead of almonds, and I'm thinking pecans would be yummy. Many people do a sweet version with preserves (like apricot or seedless raspberry) under the almonds or instead of them.
I've had baked brie before and it is decadent. This looks so easy I may have to comparison shop the ingredients and make some.
