Three simple steps are all you’ll need to make this simply delicious and elegant appetizer, featuring golden puff pastry oozing with melted Brie cheese. This time of year is all about appetizers! Sometimes I look forward to snacks and appetizers more than a full meal. This Pastry Wrapped Brie Cheese is a delicious 3-ingredient cheese appetizer made in 20 minutes! Cheese boards are so popular right now and this is a GREAT addition to a beautiful cheese board. 

Pastry Wrapped Brie Cheese

perfect appetizer for any party and holiday dinner. It’s all wrapped in flaky, buttery puff pastry and baked until the cheese is melted.

Begin by prepping your surface with a little flour to prevent the puff pastry dough from sticking. I like to work on a piece of wax paper to make clean up easier.

Once the brie cheese is wrapped up, you will then brush egg wash over it. An egg wash is beaten eggs mixed with water. You can use an egg wash to seal edges together, add shine, or enhance the golden color of baked goods.

Flip the wrapped brie over (seal side down) and bake it on a baking sheet prepared with non-stick spray. Bake to golden perfection. That buttery flakey crust literally has me drooling…

It’s also so pretty and perfect on it’s own, and such a crowd pleaser! Your guests will think you spent way more time on it than you really did. This easy pastry wrapped brie cheese is a wonderful appetizer idea for gatherings like Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Super Bowl Sunday. It’s a guaranteed crowd pleaser.
