The creamy, nutty flavor of brie cheese pairs perfectly with the flaky, buttery crust of puff pastry, and the tart sweetness of cranberry sauce adds a festive touch. This dish is relatively easy to make, and it can be tailored to your own taste preferences. For example, you can use different types of cheese, such as camembert or goat cheese, or you can add other ingredients to the filling, such as nuts, dried fruit, or herbs.

Steps:
- Remove and unwrap the brie from its package, place on a plate and transfer to the freezer for 20 minutes. Do not freeze completely.
- Slice the cold brie horizontally into 2 equal rounds and place on a cutting board with the cut sides up.
- Spread the cranberry sauce on one half of the brie, sprinkle the other half with the thyme leaves.
- Place the brie half with the thyme leaves on top of the cranberry sauce and gently press, sandwiching the two sections together.
- On a flour dusted work surface, roll one sheet of puff pastry to a 12x12 inch square and using the brie package as a pattern guide, cut one circle the same size as the the package. Cut the second circle to 6 inches.
- Measure the height of the sandwiched brie and cut the remaining section of pastry into 2 ribbon strips of dough that is 1/4-inch wider than the brie and long enough together to fit around the outside of the brie. (See Notes)
- Flip the sandwiched brie onto the center of the larger pastry round so the cranberry half will be on top. Position the smaller pastry round on top of the brie.
- In a small dish, whisk the egg with the milk and brush it onto the pastry ribbons. Wrap the pastry around the brie gluing it to the side with 1/4-inch extending above.
- Fold the bottom edge of the pastry in toward the edge of the brie and crimp it with a fork.
- Fold the extended portion of the pastry ribbon over the top of the pastry and crimp with a fork.
- Place the wrapped brie on a parchment-lined plate and transfer to the freezer for 1 hour.
- When the brie has been in the freezer for 45-minutes, preheat the oven to 350°F and line a small baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Remove the brie from the freezer, brush with milk and transfer to the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for 30 minutes until golden brown. Transfer from the oven and allow to rest for 10 minutes before serving.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Cut the round of Brie in half horizontally, as if splitting a hamburger bun. Lift the top off the Brie and spread the Cranberry Chutney over the bottom half. Replace the top.
- Lay the sheet of puff pastry on a lightly floured work surface. Roll slightly with a rolling pin until the puff pastry is 3 to 4 inches wider in all directions than the round of Brie. Place the filled Brie in the center of the puff pastry.
- Trim 1 inch from each corner of the puff pastry and reserve for another use or to decorate the top of the Brie. Fold in the 4 corners of the puff pastry so they meet in the center of the Brie. Lightly brush the dough where the pieces meet with the egg. Fold the remaining edges into the center so that the Brie is tightly wrapped.
- Flip the Brie onto the prepared baking sheet seam-side down. Decorate the top of the round with the remaining puff pastry, if desired. Refrigerate 1 hour. (The filled, wrapped Brie can be prepared up to 1 day in advance.)
- Bake until golden brown, about 35 minutes. Cool on the pan at least 10 minutes, then use a large spatula to transfer to a serving platter. Serve with the remaining Cranberry Chutney, nuts, dried fruit and crackers.
- Combine the cranberries, apple, sugar, cinnamon, ginger, cloves, orange zest and juice and 1/4 cup water in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer until thickened, about 20 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve warm or chilled. Keeps refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.

Steps:
- Thaw puff pastry sheet for 15 minutes before using.
- While puff pastry sheet is thawing, make the orange cranberry relish.
- Preheat oven to 350*F
- When puff pastry is thawed, roll out to a size that will easily wrap your entire brie.
- If you do not plan on eating the rind, slice brie in half like a sandwich to create two perfect circles.
- Place one half of brie on puff pastry sheet with the exposed side up.
- Scoop 1/2 - 1 cup of cranberry relish on top of open brie.
- Place second half of brie on top of relish, cheese side down.

- In a small bowl beat egg and 1 Tablespoon of water.
- Wrap brie up in puff pastry and brush with egg wash every place the puff pastry will touch itself.

Tips
- For the best results, use a high-quality brie cheese. A good brie will be creamy and flavorful, with a slightly nutty taste.
- If you don't have cranberry sauce on hand, you can make your own by simmering fresh or frozen cranberries with sugar and water until the cranberries burst and the mixture has thickened.
- To prevent the puff pastry from becoming soggy, brush it with an egg wash before baking. This will help to create a barrier between the pastry and the filling.
- Bake the brie in a preheated oven until the pastry is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Let the brie cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving. This will help to prevent the cheese from running out of the pastry.

Brie in puff pastry with cranberry sauce is a delicious and elegant appetizer or main course. It's perfect for special occasions or a romantic dinner.
