Warm Brie and Chutney Appetizer Triangles image

My super cool BIL brought this simple, yet elegant and yummy appetizer to our Thanksgiving feast this year. It was so simple, and I thought that my Zaar friends would enjoy this as well. I have made some modifications, adding pecan halves and crepes. If you want to make this without the crepes, just heat up the Brie (entire round), and pour the jar of chutney over the top. Serve with gourmet cracker assortment.
