ALMOND CRUSTED BRIE

Category: Cheese

1 (8-ounce) Brie cheese round, well chilled
1 sheet (from a 17.25-ounce package) frozen puff pastry, thawed
1 egg, beaten
2 tablespoons sliced almonds
1/2 cup frozen raspberries

Preheat oven to 350.

Place Brie in center of puff pastry sheet. Bring edges up to center, completely covering Brie; pinch dough firmly to seal. Trim and discard any excess dough and place seam-side down on a large rimmed baking sheet. Brush with egg and sprinkle with almonds.

Bake 30 to 35 minutes, or until cheese is soft and pastry is golden.

In a blender, purée raspberries 20 to 30 seconds, until smooth. Allow brie to cool slightly then drizzle with raspberry sauce and serve.
