Thanks for the info. I make my crust from scratch but you are right the commercial puff pastry is good in a pinch. I prefer a sweet filling to compliment the salty brie. Roll out the crust to 1/8" thickness. cover the center with home made preserves center the brie in the crust. Shape it to look like a bag of money brush it with egg white and sprinkle blanched thinly sliced almonds on the top. Bake at 400* (top shelf) for about 45 minutes. Remove from the oven let set for 20-25 minutes. Serve with pippens or granny smiths that have been soaked in lemon juice and the crackers of your choice. Frozen seedless grapes are also delicious with it.
