BAKED STUFFED BRIE WITH CRANBERRIES & WALNUTS
One of the most common mistakes people make when serving cheese is not letting it come to room temperature first, so that all the flavors can be fully realized. This beautiful baked stuffed brie takes that principle to the next level.

Steps:
- Score the side of a wheel of brie all the way around with a sharp paring knife. Cut directly on the "equator" through the rind. Using a long piece of string or dental floss, wrap the string around the brie on the newly made cut. Loop one end of the string over the other (a half knot). Then pulling the ends of the string in opposite directions, cut the brie in half.
- Press the dried cranberries on one cut side of the brie, and the walnuts on the other. Quickly put the 2 sides back together with the cranberries on top of the walnuts. Press together and stuff back in any cranberries or walnuts that fell out.
- Roll out a thawed sheet of puff pastry on a floured surface to about 1/8-inch thickness. Place brie in center of pastry. Gently pull up edges to ensure you have enough dough to entirely wrap the brie. You can trim off the corners if there is too much dough. Brush the dough with the egg wash. Fold one edge of the dough over the brie and then the opposite side. Fold over the remaining edges and complexly encase the brie. You can trim off excess pieces of dough, if necessary. Flip the brie over so the seam is at the bottom; gently press in the sides to snug the dough against the brie. Brush the top and sides of the wrapped brie with egg wash.
- If you choose to decorate the brie with cut-out shapes of additional puff pastry, use very cold (almost still frozen) dough to ensure sharp lines. Lightly brush the decorative pieces with egg wash. Place the brie in the freezer for one hour (this is a crucial step; see note below).
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Place the brie on the prepared baking sheet. Bake on the center rack in preheated oven until it is browned and leaking cheese, about 20 minutes. (Only rarely does the brie not leak through, but 20 to 25 minutes is about how long it takes to melt the cheese and brown the pastry.)

Tips:
- Choose a ripe brie. A ripe brie will be soft and creamy, with a slightly runny interior. Avoid brie that is too hard or too soft, as it will not melt properly.
- Use a good quality strawberry preserves. The strawberry preserves will be the dominant flavor in this dish, so it is important to use a good quality variety. Look for preserves that are made with fresh strawberries and have a bright, vibrant flavor.
- Toast the almonds before using them. Toasting the almonds will bring out their flavor and make them more crunchy. You can toast the almonds in a toaster oven or in a skillet over medium heat.
- Be careful not to overcook the brie. Brie is a delicate cheese, so it is important to cook it carefully. Overcooked brie will become tough and rubbery.
Conclusion:
Baked brie stuffed with strawberry preserves and toasted almonds is a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or dessert. It is perfect for parties or special occasions. The creamy brie, sweet strawberry preserves, and crunchy toasted almonds are a perfect combination of flavors. This dish is sure to impress your guests.
