1/2 stick of butter

Strawberry sauce (didnt tell ya bout that did I?)

1 pint fresh strawberries
1 cup of sugar
1 tsp lemon juice

Thaw puff pastry
slice strawberries and cover with sugar and lemon juice, the refrigerate
wrap brie in puff pastry (get fancy if you wish)
brush with melted butter

to make sauce
take berries and liquid and press thru a strainer (dispose of solids)
