Baked Brie With Caramel Sauce and Fruit image

This recipe was a suggestion from my Mother that she found but never tried. I altered it a little to fit my taste. I will publish the altered recipe. It was delicious and a perfect ending to a light dinner of fish and veggies. It left everyone full and satisfied, but not rolllling away from the table. You can make the caramel ahead and reheat right before serving.

Time 15m

Yield 13 Cheese, 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

13 ounces brie round
2 tablespoons butter
3/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup corn syrup
1 1/2 tablespoons flour
1/4 cup milk
coarsely chopped pecans, amount based on taste
2 red apples (Braeburn are a GREAT choice!)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350.
  • Melt butter in saucepan over medium heat. Add brown sugar, corn syrup, and flour. Bring to a boil stirring constantly. Reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes continuously stirring. Remove from heat. Once mixture is lukewarm, add milk and stir until smooth. (It will be lumpy at first- just keep stirring.) Add pecans - I used about a handful of halved pecans broken into fairly large pieces.
  • Place brie into oven until melted- only 5 minutes or so- you will know if you touch the outside and it moves with the melted cheese inside.
  • Take brie from oven and onto a serving platter. Warm caramel/pecan mixture if it has cooled, and pour over the top. Serve with sliced apples. Enjoy!
  • **NOTE: If you choose a slice of brie instead of a round, you should not bake the brie. It would melt all over the place. Just take out to room temperature, pour warm caramel sauce over it-- that should soften it enough to still be delicious.
