Ingredients
  

  • Brie Cheese: 1 wheel (250 grams)
  • Puff Pastry: 1 sheet, thawed
  • Honey: 2 tablespoons
  • Dried Cherries: 2 tablespoons, chopped
  • Pecans: 2 tablespoons, chopped
  • Fresh Rosemary: 1 teaspoon, finely chopped
  • Egg: 1, beaten (for egg wash)

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the Oven. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
