- 2 tablespoons honey
- 3/4 cup fig jam
- 1 teaspoon rosemary, minced
- 3 tablespoons gorgonzola cheese, crumbled
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons water
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F.
- Thaw the puff pastry sheet by placing it on the countertop for about 40 minutes.

- Position the brie wheel in the center of the pastry, then add the honey, fig jam, minced rosemary, and gorgonzola cheese on top.
- Gently fold the four corners of the pastry over the filling to enclose it.
- Brush with water as needed to help the pastry stick together, then fold the corners in once more to secure the brie.
