BRIE WRAPPED IN PHYLLO. 2 WAYS
Ingredients
- 2 wheels of Brie (1 pound each), rind trimmed off
- 10 sheets phyllo, thawed and at room temperature
- ½ pound melted butter
- 1 cup homemade cranberry sauce
- 1/3-1/2 cup apricot jam
- 5 dried figs, chopped
- ½ cup chopped walnuts
- Greek honey
Instructions
- Line a half sheet baking pan with parchment paper and preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit, 204 degrees Celsius.
- To make the Brie with Cranberries, begin by drizzling melted butter over 5 sheets of phyllo and stacking them on top of each other.
- Place the apricot jam in the center. Put 1 wheel of brie over the jam. Top with cranberry sauce.
- Fold the buttered phyllo over the cranberry sauce creating a nice packet while buttering between folds.
- To make the Brie with Honey, Figs, and Walnuts, drizzle butter over the 5 remaining sheets of phyllo and stack them on top of each other.
- Place the brie in the center. Top with the chopped figs and walnuts and drizzle with a generous amount of honey.
- Fold the phyllo over buttering between folds so that it looks like a package.
- Brush the remaining butter all over the two prepared phyllo packages.
- Bake in the center rack of your preheated oven for 25 minutes or until golden all around.
- Allow to cool at least 15 minutes so that the brie will not be runny.
- Serve at room temperature.
- Enjoy!
