Easy Baked Brie in Puff Pastry Submitted by Jenn Coyne, staff writer; recipe from SimplyRecipes.com • 1 large sheet puff pastry dough OR • 2 Tbsp. raspberry or other sweet 1 tube refrigerated crescent dinner jam rolls • 1 Tbsp. brown sugar • 1 round or wedge Brie cheese • 1/4 cup maple syrup Preheat oven to 350° degrees.

Here’s an easy fi ve-ingredient broccoli cheese soup!” • 4 cups broccoli, cut into fl orets too) 4 cloves garlic, minced 1 cup heavy cream 3-1/2 cups chicken broth 3 cups shredded Cheddar cheese (vegetable or bone broth work In a large pot over medium heat, sauté garlic for one minute, until fragrant. Add the broth, heavy cream and chopped broccoli. Increase heat to bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 10-20 minutes, until broccoli is tender. Add the cheese gradually, stirring constantly, and continue to stir until melted. (Add 1/2 cup, simmer and stir until it melts fully, then repeat 1/2 cup at a time until all the cheese is used up.) Make sure to keep it at a very low simmer and avoid high heat, to prevent seizing. Remove from heat immediately once all the cheese melts. Enjoy!
