Crescent Wrapped Baked Brie With Apricots, Cranberries & Alm image

I made this by combining a recipe found on here previously (#188466) with a baked brie recipe found in Pillsbury's Complete CookBook. DELICIOUS! The warm brie is complemented by fruity sweetness and savory crescent roll top.

Categories     Cheese

Time 45m

Yield 4-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

8 ounces round brie cheese
1 (8 ounce) can refrigerated crescent dinner rolls
1 egg, beaten
1 1/2 tablespoons minced dried apricots
2 tablespoons apricot preserves
2 teaspoons dried cranberries
2 teaspoons sliced almonds

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350°F Unroll dough, separate crosswise into 2 sections, seal perforations. Place one square on ungreased cookie sheet.
  • Cut brie horizontally using a very sharp knife to create 2 equally thick rounds. Place one round (cut side up) in the middle of the pastry square on the cookie sheet.
  • In a small bowl, combine apricots, preserves, cranberries and almonds. Spread fruit mixture on the cut center of the brie, top with the other half (cut side down).
  • Place the other square of crescent roll dough on top of the cheese round. Press dough evenly around the cheese and fold the bottom edges over the top, to seal. Seal completely.
  • Brush with beaten egg.
  • Bake at 350 F for 20-25 minutes until golden brown. Cool for 15-20 minutes before serving.

The recipe was easy to follow, but the brie didn't melt as much as I would have liked. The apricots and cranberries were also a bit too tart for my taste. Overall, it was just okay.

This recipe was a bit too sweet for my taste. The brie was melted and creamy, but the apricots and cranberries were overpowering. I think I would prefer it with a different fruit, like apples or pears.
