Step-by-Step Instructions for Baked Brie in Phyllo Dough
  1. Preheat your oven to 400ºF (200ºC).
  2. Melt about 3 tablespoons of butter until it’s fully liquid.
  3. Lay out one sheet of thawed phyllo dough. Coat it with the melted butter. Layer a second sheet on top and repeat the brushing. Continue with a third sheet.
  4. Place a fourth phyllo sheet on top without brushing it with butter.
  5. Remove the brie cheese from its packaging and place it in the center of the stacked phyllo layers.
  6. Spread about 1/3 cup of your favorite fruit preserves over the top of the brie cheese.
  7. Fold the layers of phyllo up and over the brie, ensuring the cheese is fully encased. Brush the top layers lightly with melted butter.
  8. Transfer your wrapped brie to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 15-20 minutes until golden brown.
  9. Let your Baked Brie sit for about 3-5 minutes before serving.
  10. Optionally, drizzle honey over the top and sprinkle with chopped nuts before serving.
