Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Start by freezing the brie wheel for 15 minutes to help maintain its shape when baked. Slice off the top ½ inch to expose the creamy center, and spread sour cherry jam over it.
  2. Roll out the thawed puff pastry into a rectangle measuring approximately 14 x 11 inches on a lightly floured surface.
  3. Slice the pastry into long strips, about 1 inch wide, on each side, and fold these strips over the brie to create a mummy effect.
  4. Transfer the wrapped brie onto a baking tray lined with parchment paper and brush with egg wash.
  5. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown.
  6. Add edible eyes to the Mummy Baked Brie and serve warm alongside sliced baguette and fresh fruits.
