Notes
Jam variations: any flavor of jam, jelly or preserve can be used in place of the fig jam.
Defrosting puff pastry dough: be sure to thaw the puff pastry dough before preparing this recipe. To do so, remove the dough from all packaging and place it on a cutting board at room temperature for 30-40 minutes.
Brie rind: the rind of the brie does not need to be removed for this recipe. It's totally edible and adds flavor and texture to the cheese. If you prefer brie without the rind, you can also remove it before adding the brie to the puff pastry bites.
