- 1 (14 ounce) can whole berry cranberry sauce
- 1/4 cup chopped pecans or walnuts (optional)
- 1 large egg, beaten

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

- Spread the brie cubes evenly over the wide ends of the crescent rolls.
- Spoon the cranberry sauce over the brie. Sprinkle with chopped nuts, if desired.
- Bring the pointed ends of the crescent rolls up and over the filling, tucking them under the wide ends in the center to form a wreath shape.
