Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Whisk egg and water together to make egg wash.
- Roll out puff pastry gently to a 14-inch square. Trim corners with a knife or pizza cutter to make a circle. Spread apricot preserves over the pastry, leaving a 1-inch margin around the edge. Sprinkle cranberries and almonds over the pastry, and place Brie cheese in the center.
- Brush the edges of the pastry with some of the egg wash. Fold top and bottom of pastry over the dough; trim 2 inches off each edge. Fold remaining pastry on top to cover the Brie cheese completely. Press the seams with your fingers to seal. Remove any excess apricot preserves that leaks out.
- Transfer wrapped cheese, seam-side down, to baking sheet. Brush top with egg wash.
- Bake in the preheated oven until top is golden brown, about 20 minutes. Let stand before serving, about 30 minutes.

DECADENT BRIE MACARONI & CHEESE EN CROUTE
Ooh la la is right... these are so good! They're buttery, flaky pillows of warm gooey cheese goodness. The mac and cheese itself is rich and decadent. The buttery crust tastes almost sweet next to the savory mac and cheese. These are very filling. Great for a brunch or a light dinner with a salad.

Steps:
- 1. To make the mac & cheese you first start with a roux. In a large non-stick pot heat the olive oil at medium high heat then add flour and heat until bubbly, continue to cook like this for two minutes.
- 2. Add the heated chicken broth all at once and whisk, continue whisking while simmering for 2 or 3 minutes.

- 8. Preheat oven to 400 degrees and prepare a large baking sheet with parchment.
- 9. When the mac & cheese is firm divide into 12 portions.
- 10. In a small bowl thoroughly combine the eggs and 2 tablespoons of milk, this will be used to seal the puff pastry.
- 11. The build: On a lightly floured surface lay down a sheet of puff pastry 6x9 inch. Center a portion of the mac & cheese on the pastry.
- 12. Fold the longest part of the pastry to meet at the top of the mac & cheese, wet your fingers with the egg wash and seal the bottom flap, it will overlap by about an inch.
- 13. At the unsealed sides of the puff pastry wrap like a gift.
