Brie Cheese Appetizer!

Here is the recipe that I used for my brie appetizer! It is from allrecipes.com. I did change a few things (like the preservatives...I used red raspberry instead of apricot and didnt use the egg white.)

Ingredients

1 (8 ounce) wheel Brie cheese
3 tablespoons apricot preserves
1/2 (17.5 ounce) package frozen puff pastry, thawed
1 egg white
Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a cookie sheet.
Slice one wheel of Brie cheese in half so you have 2 circles of cheese. Spread apricot or peach preserves on (the cut side) half of one circle of brie. Make sandwich out of the two halves of Brie, so that the preserves are in the center of both halves. Wrap the entire wheel of Brie with one sheet of puffed pastry and flip the entire concoction onto the prepared cooking sheet so the seam is on bottom. Brush the puffed pastry with the egg white.
Bake for 30 minutes, or until the pastry in golden brown. Serve immediately.


I served with wheat thins...yum! enjoy!

Girl! As much as I need to eat cheese in order to gain some weight (har har) I would MUCH rather see some pics of you and that beautiful family of yours!
