You can make this at home – you don’t have to buy it at Costco!
Ingredients:
- Brie cheese – wedge or whole, large or small
- butter – some, not too much
- sliced almonds – lightly scatter
Instructions:
- Preheat oven 350°.
- Place brie in a shallow ovenproof dish.
- Top with butter and almonds.
- Bake for about 15 minutes – until melted but not runny.
- Serve with crackers.
Notes: This is just the beginning. Top it with honey, raspberry jam, caramelized onions,or sun-dried tomatoes. Wrap it in a sheet of puff pastry or filo dough. Use Havarti, Gouda or some other semi-soft cheese instead of brie. Use your imagination!
