Step 1
Preheat oven to 400ºF. Thaw the phyllo pastry overnight in the refrigerator.
Step 2
Melt 4 Tbsp butter.
Step 3
Place one sheet of phyllo on a work surface and lightly coat with butter using a pastry brush. Place a second sheet over the first sheet along with more butter. Next a third with more butter. Finally add a fourth sheet of phyllo, but don't butter this one. Work quickly so that the phyllo doesn't dry out and become difficult to work with.
Step 4
Remove the brie from it's wrapping and place it into the middle of the phyllo. Measure 1/3 C of preserves and place it on top of the brie.
Step 5
Wrap the brie by folding the phyllo onto it while coating the tops of the folds with butter. Be sure to check out my photo directions within the blog post.
Step 6
Bake in a preheated oven 15-20 minutes or until golden brown.
Step 7
Allow to sit for 3-5 minutes. Optionally garnish with a sprinkle of honey and chopped nuts. Serve hot with crackers or a sliced baguette and additional jam as desired.
