CARAMELIZED PECAN & CRANBERRY ENCRUSTED BRIE
A beautiful and fancy way to serve Brie! Pie crust holds in the creamy Brie. When you cut into it, the cheese just oozes out. What makes this a little different is the caramel-like glaze.

Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 375. Bring crust to room temp before trying to unroll (about 20 minutes).
- 2. Meanwhile, do your prep work. Chop pecans. Measure cranberries. Get out the brown sugar and measure. If you have miniature cookie cutters for leaves or another shape you like, get those out too.
- 3. Unroll pie crust and cut a circle inside the crust, leaving about an inch to inch and a half remaining along at least one side. Cut out leaves with cookie cutter and discard excess dough.
- 4. Place Brie cheese in center of crust. Place 1 tbsp butter on top of the cheese. Sprinkle with 1/4 c. of brown sugar.
- 5. Fold up sides of dough to cover the cheese. Squeeze and stick together with a dab of water, then add leaves to it in the same manner. Draw the veins on the leaves with a toothpick (If desired).
- 6. Brush with beaten egg.
- 7. Bake at 375 for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown.
- 8. Wait until the brie is almost done to start cooking the glaze.
- 9. For the glaze, melt butter in small saucepan. Add 1/2 c brown sugar, 1/4 c cranberries and 1/2 c chopped pecans. Stir and cook on medium heat for 2-3 minutes.
- 10. Add 2 tbsp cream. Stir and cook for several more minutes until you have a nice caramel glaze. Pour on top of encrusted brie.
- 11. Serve with crackers or crisp apple slices. It seems to be easier to eat if cut up into small pieces.
