Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. On a lightly floured surface, unroll the chilled puff pastry and smooth out with a rolling pin.
  3. Spread a generous layer of cranberry sauce evenly across the puff pastry, leaving a half-inch border.
  4. Layer thin slices of brie cheese over the cranberry sauce and sprinkle fresh thyme leaves evenly.
  5. Slice the pastry into 8 equal strips, fold each in half, and twist them together, pinching the ends to seal.
  6. Transfer twists to the baking sheet, brush the tops with egg wash, and leave space between each for expansion.
  7. Bake for 18-22 minutes until puffed and golden brown, then allow to cool slightly before serving.
  8. Drizzle with honey, if desired, and serve warm for the best flavor.
