Brie with Pecan Syrup

Category: Cheese

1/2 cups Pecans
1/4 cups Kahlua
2 Tablespoons Brown Sugar
1 whole Wheel Of Brie

Put pecans in a small saucepan over medium low heat to toast. Toast pecans for 2-3 minutes, careful not to burn.
Once pecans are toasted, add the brown sugar and Kahlua to the pan with the pecans, mix until combined. Allow ingredients to melt over the heat, 2-3 minutes.

Scrape top of wheel of brie with a fork, just to rough up the surface and remove some of the rind. Place brie into a lipped dish (like a pie plate), top with the pecan mixture. Microwave brie in 30 second increments until soft, but not oozing out (it usually takes me 3-4 30-second go-rounds in the microwave).

Serve with crackers. (I like to serve with buttery crackers like Club Crackers, or with Plain Water Crackers)

Tip for Taking to a Party: When I take this to a party, I take the brie, the dish, and the premade pecan mixture all separate. Then I assemble it at the party. It is fine to keep the pecan mixture at room temperature once it is made.
