Number Of Ingredients 22
Steps:
- BACON & BRIE CHEESE FONDUE Mix the shredded Emmenthaler and Gruyere Cheese and toss it with cornstarch to aid in thickening and improve the viscosity of the fondue. Place a metal bowl over a saucepan filled with 2 inches of water. You may also use a conventional double boiler. Bring the water to a boil over high heat. When steam is visible, reduce the heat to medium. Add the white wine to bowl, and then add the Brie cheese. Using a fork, stir for approximately 30 seconds, slightly breaking up the Brie cheese in the base. Add the bacon and continue to stir the contents of the bowl. Add 1/3 of the shredded cheese blend and stir using the fork until fully incorporated into liquid. Then add another 1/3 and continue stirring until melted. Last, add the rest of the cheese and stir using a circular whipping motion until smooth. Squeeze the lemon juice into the melted fondue and then add fresh ground black pepper. Fold these two ingredients into the cheese fondue 4-5 times. Top the fondue with the fresh chopped scallions. Use dippers such as bread cubes, vegetables, cubed sausage, and cornichons. FLAMING TURTLE CHOCOLATE FONDUE Heat melted chocolate in desired fondue pot. Pour the caramel syrup in a pool at the center of the warm chocolate. Add the rum to the pot and light with a long fireplace lighter. As the rum burns away, carefully stir the mixture together. Garnish with chopped pecans. Use dippers such as fresh fruits and berries, pound cake, brownies, cheesecake, etc. The possibilities are endless so be creative, have fun and enjoy! BANANAS FOSTER FONDUE Melt the chocolate in the top of a double boiler set over simmering water, stirring constantly; or place the chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave until melted, stirring every 30 to 45 seconds. Place the banana slices in the bottom of a warm fondue pot. Pour the chocolate over the bananas. Add the caramel and stir gently. Add the liqueur and rum and stir gently to combine. Keep fondue warm over low heat.
HOLIDAY BRIE
SO delicious, and the topping isn't too sweet. I often make the topping in advance, then just heat the whole thing together right before serving. I usually make this for my annual cookie exchange, and everyone raves about it.

Steps:
- 1. Beat egg and water in small bowl. Roll pastry sheet on lightly floured surface (14" square). Spread cranberry sauce over cheese (large round cheese or small round use judgment of how much you spread,) then sprinkle toasted almonds and place cheese and trim excess and use pieces for decoration on pastry, brush pastry with egg/water mixture. Bake at 400 degrees for 20 minutes and let cool for 30 minutes.
- 2. You can use apricot jam with dried cranberries or other spreads etc.
Tips:
- Choose a ripe brie. A ripe brie will have a soft, creamy texture and a slightly runny center. Avoid bries that are too hard or too soft, as they will not melt properly.
- Use a good quality puff pastry. The puff pastry is what will give your brie bites their flaky, crispy crust. Be sure to use a brand that you trust and that is made with high-quality ingredients.
- Cut the brie into small pieces. This will help the brie melt evenly and prevent it from becoming too runny.
- Wrap the brie pieces in puff pastry. Be sure to seal the edges of the pastry well so that the brie does not leak out.
- Bake the brie bites until the pastry is golden brown and the brie is melted and bubbly. This will usually take about 20 minutes.
- Serve the brie bites warm with your favorite dipping sauce. Some popular dipping sauces include honey, cranberry sauce, and balsamic vinegar.
Conclusion:
Brie bites are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. They are sure to be a hit with your guests, and they are also a great way to use up leftover brie. So next time you have a party or gathering, be sure to give brie bites a try.
