Time 1h

Yield 1 Pie

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (9 inch) pie crusts
3 ounces rind removed brie cheese or 3 ounces camembert cheese
6 ounces cream cheese
2 tablespoons softened butter
3 tablespoons cream
2 eggs
1/2 tablespoon minced chives
salt
white pepper
cayenne pepper

Steps:

Line a 9-inch tart pan with a removable bottom with the pie crust. Line the inside of the crust with crumbled wax paper or parchment paper and fill with dried beans.
Place in oven and bake about 12-15 minutes or until partially done. Remove the beans and the paper and bake an additional 2-3 minutes to dry out the bottom.
Preheat oven to 375F to bake the quiche.
Using a fork, blend the cheese with the butter and cream.
Beat in the eggs.
Force this mixture through a sieve to remove any lumps.
Stir in the chives. Taste and season with the salt, pepper and cayenne.
Pour into the pastry, place the pan on a baking sheet and bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until the quiche is puffed and browned.
