Brie Phyllo Torte with fresh Raspberries
Brie is topped with fresh raspberries tossed in an apricot jam and placed inside a bed of phyllo dough sheets. The pie is baked until Brie is melted and phyllo is a flakey golden brown. Serve with crackers or French baguette for a sweet appetizer or savory dessert.
Ingredients
- 2 Tbsp apricot jam
- 1 pint fresh raspberries
- 7 sheets phyllo pastry thawed
- 4 Tbsp butter melted
