- Unfold the defrosted puff pastry and cut into an approximate square by trimming the long end of the pastry.
- Place the cooled cranberry compote in a pile in the center of the puff pastry square ensuring the pile is not larger than the wheel of brie. Place the wheel of brie on top of the pile of cranberry mixture. Gently fold the puff pastry over the wheel of the brie completely encasing it. Press the edges of the pastry together to create a complete seal.
