# What You’ll Need:
→ Dairy
01 - 1 whole wheel brie cheese, approx. 8 oz
→ Pastry
02 - 1 sheet puff pastry, thawed
→ Filling
03 - 3 tablespoons cranberry sauce
04 - 2 tablespoons toasted pecans, roughly chopped
→ Topping
05 - 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
06 - 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, finely chopped (optional)

# How To Make It:
01 - Preheat oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
02 - Unroll puff pastry on a lightly floured surface and cut out a large triangle resembling a pine tree large enough to cover the brie; reserve the scraps.
03 - Place the brie wheel in the center of the pastry. Spread cranberry sauce over the brie and sprinkle with toasted pecans.
04 - Fold the pastry over the brie, shaping it to resemble a pine tree. Use reserved scraps to cut small triangles or strips for branches to decorate the tree.
05 - Transfer wrapped brie to the baking sheet and brush all surfaces with beaten egg.
06 - Sprinkle finely chopped rosemary over the pastry if using, then bake for 20 to 25 minutes until golden and crisp.
07 - Let baked pastry cool for 10 minutes and optionally drizzle with honey before serving.
08 - Serve warm accompanied by crackers, apple slices, or fresh bread.
