Kahlua-Pecan-Brown Sugar Baked Brie




Join Noble Pig Vineyard on Facebook, we'd love to have you.

If the name of this recipe alone doesn't make you want to jump up and get it in the oven, I don't know what else could convince you. 

I was lucky enough to get this recipe from my friend Jody, who got it from her friend Jody...you got that?  I knew when I heard about it at Thanksgiving, I absolutely had to have it.  However, I do not know the true origin of this recipe.

I cannot begin to tell you how good this is.  It's almost borderline dessert.  The creamy, warm Brie with the sweet sauce is really, really unbelievable.  I don't think you can celebrate the holidays without it.  I'm not kidding.

You will want to use a large wheel of Brie to accompany all the sauce, not to mention there will not be enough for everyone if you make a small one.

This also only takes 15 minutes to throw together, it's the perfect appetizer for this busy time of year.




Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Start by carefully slicing the rind off the top of the Brie wheel, but do not remove completely.  Bake for 15 minutes.




When the Brie is done baking, the top can be easily removed to expose the creamy cheese.




While the Brie is baking, in a medium saucepan, bring Kahlua and brown sugar to a boil and simmer for 10-15 minutes, until a syrupy consistency is made.  Throw the pecans in for 2 minutes at the end to warm them through and completely cover with the sauce.




Remove the Brie from the oven (removing top rind) and pour Kahlua sauce over the Brie. 




Serve with your favorite crackers.  People will be begging you for the recipe.

Kahlua-Pecan-Brown Sugar Baked Brie

1 whole wheel of Brie (Costco sells a 19 ounce Brie wheel which is perfect for this recipe)
1 cup Kahlua
1 cup light brown sugar, packed
1 cup chopped pecans (I left mine whole because I like they way they look)
Accompaniment: crackers

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Start by carefully slicing the rind off the top of the Brie wheel, but do not remove completely.  Bake for 15 minutes.  When the Brie is done baking, the top can be easily removed to expose the creamy cheese.

While the Brie is baking, in a medium saucepan, bring Kahlua and brown sugar to a boil and simmer for 10-15 minutes, until a syrupy consistency is made.  Throw the pecans in for 2 minutes at the end to warm them through and completely cover with the sauce.

Remove the Brie from the oven (removing top rind) and pour Kahlua sauce over the Brie.
