Sugar & Spice Brie
"This is another one of those recipes with no quantities because the amounts depend upon the size of the piece of brie. If you have ever been a little bit afraid of trying to bake brie yourself, you will find this recipe extremely simple. Enjoy it."

I have done exactly the same thing, with exactly the same ingredients, many times -- and it's always a success with guests. I highly recommend adding a few craisins during the holiday seasons; makes it a little more festive. This is VERY easy to prepare; the hardest part is snipping the apricots with your kitchen scissors. I suggest you buy as big a brie round as your budget will allow; the bigger the brie, the more spectacular it looks when you serve it! -
Made this when we had unexpected guest show up, it was easy, looked pretty and was enjoyed by all. I didn't have dried apricots, so used dried sweet cherries and turned out nice. -
I tried this with a baked Camembert instead of Brie, and it was heaven on a plate. My guests all loved it, and even those who aren't big cheese lovers loved it. I served it with crackers, but once people were full they still kept eating it without the crackers! Simply stunning, thanks for sharing!

Back then the original owners Troy and Gay ran the site and they had a lot of interaction with the members. I miss them. <br /> <br />Through the years it still remains to this day my favorite go to site and the one that I send all of my friends and family to when they need anything.</p>
