Description

This Cheesy Christmas Baked Brie Wreath combines creamy baked brie, golden puff pastry, and a festive cranberry glaze for the ultimate holiday appetizer. Perfect for sharing!


Ingredients

Scale

1 wheel of brie cheese (8 oz)

1 sheet of puff pastry, thawed

1 egg, beaten

1/3 cup cranberry sauce (whole berry)

2 tbsp chopped pecans (optional)

1 tbsp honey

Fresh rosemary sprigs (for garnish)

Sea salt (to taste)


Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. Roll out the puff pastry into a large square. Place the brie in the center.

3. Spoon the cranberry sauce over the top of the brie and sprinkle with chopped pecans if using.

4. Wrap the puff pastry up and over the brie, sealing the edges at the top.

5. Flip the wrapped brie over so the seam is on the bottom. Brush with the beaten egg.

6. Score the top lightly in a crisscross pattern and sprinkle with a pinch of sea salt.

7. Bake for 20–25 minutes, or until golden brown and puffed.

8. Drizzle with honey and garnish with rosemary before serving warm.

Serve immediately for the best melty center. Can be assembled a few hours ahead and baked just before guests arrive.
