Ingredients

1/4 cup packed brown sugar
1/4 cup chopped macadamia nuts or pecans
1 tablespoon brandy
One 14-ounce round of Brie
Apple wedges
Pear wedges

Preparation

  1. In a small bowl stir together the sugar, nuts, and brandy. Cover and chill for at least 24 hours or up to one week. At serving time, place the Brie on an ovenproof platter or pie plate. Bake at 500 degrees for 4 or 5 minutes or until the Brie is slightly softened.

Brush the fruit wedges with lemon juice and arrange them around one side of the Brie. Place crackers around the other side.
