Ok,so since out Little Peanut was born the hubs and I have tried to do a date night at home on Saturdays. This week we made Brie en Croute, which was shockingly simple but delicious and looks fancy (it would be great for a party.) our first step: thaw out a sheet of puff pastry (I just bought a box of Pepperidge Farm brand at the store) and lay out our toppings. I try to roughly shape them to the same size as the top of the Brie. I used 2 Tbs of raspberry jam, dried cherries, and walnuts.
I place the Brie on top:
And then fold the puff pastry over the whole thing:
The last step is mixing 1 Tbs water and an egg and mix together well. Please the ends (the non-smooth side of the pastry) down and brush the whole thing with the water egg mixture. Bake that bad boy on 350 degrees for 20 minutes or until golden brown. When it's done it will be a sweet savory melty bundle of goodness. Place on a cracker, slice of apple or pear, or just eat a chunk out of your hand. So good!!
