BAKED BRIE AND RED PEPPER JELLY WRAPPED IN PHYLLO PASTRY

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Place brie on flat surface and with sharp knife, slice Brie in half horizontally.
• (This is much easier to do if Brie is nicely chilled first).
• Spread red pepper jelly on bottom half of Brie and then replace top half of brie and set aside.
• Using a pastry brush, brush butter on first sheet of phyllo, place a second sheet on top at roughly a 30 degree angle, brush with butter, place third sheet on top at roughly a 30 degree angle from the first, brush with butter and continue until all sheets have been used.
• (The reason for placing the sheets on angles is that you'll end up with a larger surface which makes for easier wrapping and it also gives you a more interesting presentation as you bring all the sheets together).
• Place Brie in centre of phyllo and gently pull all the sheets up and over the Brie, twisting closed at the top.
• Arrange the sheets in the"twist" in various directions.
• Brush entire package with melted butter.
• Bake for 30-35 minutes.
• Set aside for 5-10 minutes before serving.
• Serve with crackers or thinly sliced baguette.
