Brie Cheese in Puff Pastry with Jam

March 17, 2017 by Linda 30 Comments

When I was a caterer, Brie Cheese in Puff Pastry with Jam was one of my most requested hors d’oeurve or appetizers for parties and wedding buffets.

Brie Cheese in Puff Pastry with Strawberry Jam

Brie Cheese is a creamy cheese that is covered with a rind.  The rind is edible.  You can test the creaminess of the brie by pressing on the cheese.  The younger the cheese is, the creamier it will be.

Puff pastry is usually purchased in a package of 2 rectangles and then rolled to the size that you need.  Use one rectangle to wrap the brie and one rectangle to cut out a decoration for the brie if needed.

Brie Cheese in Puff Pastry looks beautiful on buffet tables surrounded with strawberries, fruits, and cheeses and other hors d’oeuvre.  The acidity in fruit enhances the taste and creaminess of brie cheese.

Most often I will use strawberry jam on top of the brie when I’m planning to surround with strawberries.  I have also used orange marmalade to top the cheese.

Set up the buffet with the cheese on a taller platter and the fruit and vegetables lower or surrounded on a platter.

To make the display fancier you can display the brie cheese in puff pastry on a mirror.

    Oh this sounds interesting. I love the idea of using strawberry jam too. I can see how this could be a top request. Do ppl just slice a little piece?

      Thanks Renz. Yes people can slice it themselves. Gives them something to do. Plus some people want small bites and others want large pieces.

    Brie wrapped in puff pastry and baked is so good. I have had it plain and with jam. I do think I prefer it with a little strawberry jam…or fig preserves.

    I’ve had baked brie before and love it. Never tried Jam thought sounds like an interesting twist. Can’t wait to try.

      The jam under the crust of the phyllo comes oozing out when it is cut. Delicious!

    This looks so yumm and I love using brie in baked puffs. This would make a great appetizer with Wines or a dessert in summer parties. Saving the recipe to try later.

    I will never say no to puff pastry but include brie along with that and it’s a double YES! Your appetizer looks so tasty I could make a meal out of it. I think I’ll have to make an appetizer just for Hubby and me.

    I love brie, and was gutted I could not have some when I was pregnant. Christmas time was tough, since I so wanted to have a cheese board. These appertizers look delish, no wonder they were so requested, they make the ideal treat, and such a posh one.
