7Ingredients
- 8 oz Président Camembert
- 25 oz bag Parkerhouse Style Frozen Rolls Dough
- 1/4 cup Président unsalted butter melted
- 1 tsp Minced Fresh Rosemary plus more for garnish
- 1/4 cup Pomegranate Seeds for Garnish
- Flaked Maldon Sea Salt
Directions
- Cover a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Using the Camembert as a guide in the center, arrange frozen dough rolls in two circles around the cheese. Leaving a 1/2” space between rolls and between circles.
- Remove cheese and refrigerate until ready to use.
- Brush frozen rolls with melted butter. Thaw 1 hour in a warm, draft-free area, then allow an additional 2 hours to rise until doubled in size.
- Once dough has formed a “wreath,” par-bake at 325 degrees for 7 minutes.
- Using a sharp knife, carefully remove the top layer of rind from the Camembert wheel. This will allow for easy dipping!
- Remove par-baked rolls from the oven and fit Camembert in the center. Bake an additional 8-10 minutes, or until rolls are golden brown and cheese is melted.
- Using parchment paper, slide wreath off of baking sheet and onto a serving platter or board.
