Photo: Brie with Strawberries on Brioche Crostini Recipe
Ingredients
- 6 slices brioche bread sliced 1/4-inch thick
- 3 ounces whipped cream cheese, at room temperature
- 1/2 teaspoon chopped chives
- 1 large strawberry
- 1/2 small (about 2 inches diameter) Brie wheel
- 6 sprigs parsley
Directions
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
Using a 1 1/2-inch diameter biscuit cutter, cut the sliced bread into 6 circles and put on a baking sheet. Toast the brioche circles in the oven for 3 to 5 minutes, until golden brown. With a rubber spatula, fold together the cream cheese and chopped chives and place in a small pastry bag with star tip. Pipe out about 1/2-ounce of cream cheese and chive mixture onto each toasted brioche circle. Cut off top of strawberry, slice in half lengthwise, then cut each half into 3 wedges. Cut the 1/2 wheel of Brie into 6 triangle wedges. Place 1 wedge of strawberry and 1 wedge of Brie standing up on the cream cheese. Place 1 parsley sprig on top of each.

The colors were amazing. the flavor was a little bland for my taste but everything did accentuate the strawberries. I did, however, substitute the brioche for sweet bread. Over all it was good, but i do believe with a little more thought it could be better.

This was another great and very simple recipe. I did substitute rounds of regular bread to test the recipe. I'll be making the brioche for the "real" recipe for an upcoming party.
Robert's recipes can be hard to follow. Without having the picture, it sounded like the cheese was supposed to be stood upright, which looked cool, but not practical.

The combination of flavors is fun, and as a bonus, it's a pretty little appetizer.
