Add a generous portion of jam to the top of the wheel, or one side of the sandwich
Roll dough out with a rolling pin on a floured surface
Trim excess dough. You can also use it to decorate .
Wrap the pastry up around the sides and over the top of cheese wheel, wrapping completely and pressing the edges of dough together to form a tightly sealed package.
Carefully flip the dough-wrapped cheese over, so that the gathered dough is on the bottom.Place the package, seam side down, on a baking sheet sprayed with non-stick cooking spray.
The brie can be prepared up to this point and refrigerated for 2 days before baking.
Be sure to bring the brie to room temperature before baking.
Preheat the oven to 400° F.
Combine the egg and water and brush the mixture over the top and sides of the pastry.
Add design from leftover dough if you'd like, and brush with egg mixture
Bake the brie for 30-35 minutes or until golden brown. Let stand 10 minutes before serving. Serve with crackers, toast or chips
Enjoy!
