Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 1/4 cups sugar
1/3 cup water
1 eight-inch wheel of brie
20 pecans or walnuts (about 1/2 cup)

Steps:

  • Prepare an ice-water bath. Heat sugar and water in a small saucepan over medium-high heat, swirling, until sugar dissolves. Cook, swirling and brushing down sides of pan with a wet pastry brush (to preventsugar crystals from forming), until dark amber. Immediately dip bottom of pan in ice-water bath to stop the cooking.
  • Place brie on a serving platter. Dip pecans into caramel using chopsticks; arrange around edge of brie. Rewarm remaining caramel if needed, and pour over top, swirling to coat and drip down sides. Let stand until hardened. Crack caramel with a knife to serve.

This recipe was a bit too complicated for me. I think I'll try a simpler brie recipe next time.

I'm not a huge fan of brie, but this recipe changed my mind. The caramel sauce is the perfect complement to the brie's mild flavor.

This was a delightful recipe! The caramel sauce was rich and flavorful, and the brie was gooey and melted perfectly. I served it with crackers, and it was a hit with my guests.
