If you have a little more time to play around with this, you can make individual Brie cups instead of one big Brie, the way Erica did. She says: "I cut the frozen puff pastry into small rectangles or squares, brushed the pastry with beaten egg, and filled with approximately a teaspoon of brie, approximately 1 teaspoon of seedless raspberry jam, and a sprinkling of crushed walnuts. I folded each little piece of pastry over on itself to make either a triangle or a square/rectangle shape, poked a hole in the top with a fork, and brushed the top with egg."

Although the recipe doesn't call for you to precook the sausage before rolling it up in the puff pastry, several reviewers recommend that do you so in order to cut down on the grease. Home cook Lynda S, however, used ground turkey flavored with Italian seasonings, and she says it wasn't greasy at all.
