Baked Brie in Puff Pastry with Honey and Almonds

Step 1

Roll the puff pastry into an 11-inch square.  Be sure the puff pastry is larger enough to be wrapped up over the brie and overlapping. Place brie in the center of the dough and top with 2 tablespoons of honey and half the almonds.

Step 2

Fold up the corners of the puff pastry one at a time, brushing all the dough with the egg wash as you go, using it like glue to hold the pastry together. Continue to brush the egg and wash over the top and sides of the dough after formed.

Step 3

Bake the brie at 400 degrees for 10 minutes, then carefully pull the oven rack out without removing the brie from the oven.  Quickly drizzle with a tablespoon of honey and sprinkle with the remaining almond slices.  Slide the Brie back into the oven and continue baking for another 10 minutes.

Step 4

NOTE:  Be careful to not let the almonds burn.
