Baked Brie with Garlic and Honey



Another easy peesy hor'derve or pre-dinner snack is a recipe I originally became obsessed with back in university with my 1212 girls.  Though I have modified it a little bit - any way you cut it a melted pot of brie is delish no matter what.

You will need:

1 wheel of brie
Jarred minced garlic
Honey

Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Cut the top rind off one side of the brie using a sharp knife and use the rest of the rind as a "bowl" for the cheese to sit inside.  Place your brie into a brie baker (if you have one) - if not - set it on aluminum foil on a baking sheet.  Curve the ends the the foil up a bit to create a bowl for your "bowl".

Spread a thick layer of your minced garlic over the open face of the wheel and bake for 10-15 minutes or until the cheese looks like its melting.

Remove from the oven and drizzle honey over the top.

Serve with gourmet crackers or crunchy crostini.

*option* substitute fig jam, or blueberry compote for the honey!
