Camembert Baked in the Box With Garlic
"I got this recipe from a Nigel Slater cook book but when I made it I altered it to include chopped garlic as I think it makes it nicer.
Really nice although Camembert can be a bit smelly!"

Way to go! -
Very Nice. I would have never thought of cooking it in the box. I make a similar recipe. Instead of garlic on top I spread Pesto Sauce on it. Give it a try. It's yummy too. -
wonderful way to have camembert. it's almost like cheese fondue. thank you for sharing. -
This stuff is absolutely amazing. I don't think I'll ever try camembert any other way. YUM.

I an so stuffed from feasting on this that it is amazing I can actually mange to type this review. My supermarket threw in a box of Camembert with my grocery delivery this week as a holiday gift. I had never cooked with one before but decided tonight was the night and this was the recipe. I was right! This was very easy to put together and went beautifully with a plate of continental meats and bread. Fondue in a box :)
