  • 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup chopped pecans
  • 1 tablespoon brandy
  • 1 14-ounce round brie
  • Apple wedges for serving
  • Pear wedges for serving
  • 2 to 3 tablespoons lemon juice

Directions

  1. In a small bowl stir together the sugar, nuts, and brandy. Cover and chill for at least 24 hours or up to 1 week.

  2. Preheat oven to 500 degrees F.

  3. Place the brie on an ovenproof platter or pie plate. Bake for 4 or 5 minutes or until the brie is slightly softened.
