This is a very elegant appetizer. Make sure to 'gently' pat down the brown sugar (perhaps sprinkling would be better). The first time I made it I was not gentle and the crust was much to hard (but still delicious). Some reviewers have suggested using less sugar which sounds like a good option. You be the judge. Either way, it's sure to be a hit at your next get together.

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 (24 ounce) brie round, not fully ripened, top rind removed (8 inch)

cracker

Steps:

  • Preheat broiler.
  • Place Brie in 10-inch quiche dish or other oven-proof dish or pie plate and sprinkle with nuts.
