How to Make Baby Brie With Praline
- Preheat your oven's broiler.
- Using a sharp knife, carefully remove and discard the top rind of the brie cheese.
- In a medium bowl, combine 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1/2 cup pecan halves, and 2 tablespoons melted butter. Mix until well combined.
- Evenly sprinkle the praline mixture over the surface of the brie.
- Place the brie in an oven-safe dish slightly larger than the cheese.
- Broil the brie 6 inches from the heat source for 6-8 minutes, or until the cheese is soft and melted, and the topping is bubbly and golden brown. Watch closely to prevent burning.
- **Variation 1 (Cranberry Brie):** Heat 1/2 cup whole cranberry sauce and pour it over the whole brie or camembert before baking. Follow steps 5 & 6.
- **Variation 2 (Apricot Brandy Brie):** Mix 1/4 cup apricot jam with 2 teaspoons brandy. After removing the rind, prick the brie's surface with a fork and pour 1 teaspoon of additional brandy over the cheese. Top with the apricot mixture and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 10-12 minutes. Sprinkle with toasted sliced almonds before serving.
- Serve immediately with fresh strawberries, crackers, or your favorite cookies.
