If you know me at all, you know that I love, love, love cheese! This recipe is one that my friends found and asked me to try.
Ingredient List:
A round of Brie
Crescent Rolls
1 egg
First you need to take the Crescent Rolls out of the container. Then you split them in half so you have 2 squares - like the one shown in the picture. Place one of the squares on a parchment paper lined baking sheet. (I encourage parchment paper for this because it won't brown the crescent rolls too quickly like aluminum foil could.) Once the Crescent rolls are on the parchment you need to press the perforated lines together. If there are any holes the cheese will ooze through.
Then you place the brie in the center of the square. You add the other square of crescent rolls to the top. Cut off the excess in the corners and smooth it together until it looks like this.
Then roll out the excess and cut it into whatever shapes you want. I decided to go with a circle cut into 4 because I know that I can make that into a flower pretty easily :)
Add your shapes to the top and then cover it with an egg wash. The egg wash helps it brown. You should use an pastry brush but if you don't have one a paper towel can work too.
Bake in the oven at 350 for 20 - 24 minutes. Then take it out and let it rest for about 5 minutes. You just don't want it to all ooze out or for any steam to come out and hit you in the face or on the hand. Trust me a steam burn is awful!
If you want to get fancy you can add honey, cranberries and chopped pecans. Then you just serve and enjoy!
We had it with a variety of crackers.
