I made this for our Christmas Eve Buffet. It's also popular at friends' teas or showers. This dish is really good, and gets rave reviews whenever I serve it. It looks great served on a plate surrounded by multi-colored grapes and herb seeded crackers.

How To Make baked brie with nuts

Step 1

Carefully remove the white rind from the top of the Baby Brie cheese, leaving the rind on the sides and bottom. Using a cheese shaver is the easiest way to get it off.

Step 2

Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
Step 3

Melt the butter in a saucepan until it foams. Add the nuts and saute until browned. Be careful not to burn.
Step 4

Arrange the nuts on top of the Brie and lightly sprinkle with the brown sugar. Transfer to an oven-proof serving dish and bake for 5-8 minutes, or until it's heated through.
Step 5

Serve with herb-seeded crackers or toasted rye bread rounds. You may cut the Brie into 16 wedges to serve.
