Steps:
- Preheat oven to 425°F. Place 1 sheet of puff pastry on a flat surface and brush the top of the entire sheet with egg wash. Place remaining sheet directly on top and roll lightly with a rolling pin to assure adherence to the bottom sheet. Divide the sheet into 6 or 8 rectangles. Score each rectangle with a knife inside the edge about ½ inch to create a lid. Bake for 8-10 minutes until golden brown and completely risen. Let cool to room temperature. Carefully remove scored section for lid and remove any excess puff pastry for the interior to form hollow cavity. Set aside. In a large sauté pan heat oil over medium high heat. Sauté scallops and shrimp for 1 minute. Add vegetables and deglaze with Brandy. Reduce heat. Add Alouette® Crème de Brie and milk or cream and bring to a simmer. Place 1 puff pastry chest in the center of a plate and spoon in seafood mixture. Garnish with cut scallions and top with puff pastry lid. Serve immediately.

Steps:
- Melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat; cook the onions and celery until the onions are translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in the flour, and cook for 3 minutes, stirring constantly. Gradually whisk in the chicken stock. Simmer until the celery is tender, about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in the Brie cheese, and allow to melt for about 5 minutes.
- Pour the soup into a blender, filling the pitcher no more than halfway full. Hold down the lid of the blender with a folded kitchen towel, and carefully start the blender, using a few quick pulses to get the soup moving before leaving it on to puree. Puree in batches until smooth, and pour into a clean pot. Heat the soup to almost simmering over medium-low heat. Pour in the cream. To serve, garnish with red and green pepper strips.

Tips for Making Crème de Brie Treasure Chests:
- Use high-quality ingredients, especially the brie cheese. A good brie will have a smooth, creamy texture and a mild, buttery flavor.
- Make sure the brie is cold before you start working with it. This will help prevent it from becoming too soft and difficult to handle.
- Use a sharp knife to cut the brie, both to create the treasure chests and to slice it for serving.
- Be careful not to overfill the treasure chests. Too much filling will make them difficult to close and may cause them to burst open.
- Bake the treasure chests until the brie is melted and bubbly. This will take about 10-12 minutes.
- Serve the treasure chests immediately, while the brie is still warm and melted.
Conclusion:
Crème de Brie Treasure Chests are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. They are made with just a few simple ingredients and can be assembled in minutes. The brie cheese is melted and bubbly, while the phyllo dough is crispy and flaky. The treasure chests can be filled with a variety of fillings, such as nuts, dried fruit, or even chocolate. They are sure to be a hit at your next party or gathering.
