Ingredients
- 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
- 1/4 cup chopped macadamia nuts or pecans
- 1 tablespoon brandy
- 1 (14-ounce) round brie
- Apple wedges, for serving
- Pear wedges, for serving
- 2 to 3 tablespoons lemon juice
- Crackers, for serving
Directions
In a small bowl stir together the sugar, nuts, and brandy. Cover and chill for at least 24 hours or up to 1 week.
Preheat oven to 500 degrees F.
Place the brie on an ovenproof platter or pie plate. Bake for 4 or 5 minutes or until the brie is slightly softened. Spread the sugar mixture in an even layer on top of the warm brie and bake for 2 to 3 minutes longer, or until the sugar melts. Brush the fruit wedges with lemon juice and arrange them around 1 side of the brie. Place crackers around the other side.

I have made this recipe both with the macadamias and with pecans. Our family and friends love this.

Please try this recipe, you may find you love it! Cheese is one of my most favorite foods and a good triple brie is top on my list. I had never tasted a baked brie and thought I would give it a whorl. Served at Christmas. I have a bit of a sweet tooth and thought the mild buttery creamy brie would be complimented nicely by the crunchy nuts and sweet glaze. So I was very surprised that I did not enjoy this much at all. Neither did my guests. Sadly I ended up tossing most of it. A review is based on the reviewer's own personal tastes, likes and dislikes (opinion and we all very greatly. That said, Paula has many wonderful recipes, I personally just don't like this one. But, according to many prior posting their are those who love it! That's what cooking is all about. Trying, tasting and finding the recipes we like the best.
