Garlic Baked Brie Spider - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
1 brie cheese wheel
2 garlic cloves (sliced)
2 sheets puff pastry
3 -4 prosciutto, slices
2 black olives
for topping
4 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 teaspoon rosemary (chopped)
1/2 teaspoon thyme (chopped)
1 teaspoon basil (chopped)
1 pinch salt
black pepper (to taste)
1 egg (for egg wash)
Preparation
-
Slice a grid on top of a brie wheel; approximately 4 slits horizontally and vertically.
Insert thinly sliced garlic in the slots.
To make the spider legs: roll out a sheet of puff pastry dough; then a layer of prosciutto on top; cut 1-2\" strips.
To make the spider's head: take a puff pastry dough and make it into a small ball (the size of a large meatball); slice black olives and insert them into the ball to make the eyes and fangs.
Position the head and brie wheel on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Twist each strip of pastry dough/prosciutto and place them around the spider's body to form the legs.
In a bowl, mix olive oil, rosemary, thyme, basil, salt and black pepper; spoon the mixture over the brie cheese wheel.
Brush egg wash over the head and legs.
Bake at 400\u00b0F for 15 minutes.
