A Bundle Of Brie

none

1 Tube pizza crust
1 Round 8 oz. Brie
3 tablespoons Cranberry sauce or salsa

Unroll crust; cut in half to make two 9x5 1/4 inch rectangles. Reserve 1
rectangle for another use.

Roll out remaining dough into 10 inch square. Place Brie in center and
top
with cranberry sauce. Bring 2 sides of dough upward around Brie to
enclose; bring up opposite sides to meet. Fold down corners
attractively.
Place on greased baking sheet; bake in 400F oven for about 20 minutes or
until crust is golden. Let cool on pan on rack for 15 minutes before
serving. Makes 8 servings.
