This is how I started my Praline Sauce. I would cater an event through Champagne Dreams warming up a wheel of Brie cheese. Sometimes I would cover it in a Filo dough just to give it more depth. I would serve this on a platter, with my warmed Praline Sauce and side of wafer or buttery crackers. This got very popular and the Praline Sauce brought the plain Brie to a whole new level. Below is the easy recipe.
1 wheel of French Brie
1 6 oz jar of Praline Sauce or Whiskey Praline Sauce
1 12 oz box of Wafer Crackers or Buttery Crackers
Heat oven to 350 degrees. Unwrap Brie from paper, do not peel the outer covering. Lay Brie wheel on a cookie sheet or ceramic oven safe plate. Bake for 10-15 minutes. The Brie may look oozy, that's OK. Take out of oven and transfer to platter or use ceramic plate for display. Shake Praline Sauce and warm in microwave (removing lid first) for 30 seconds.
Pour Praline Sauce liberally over warmed Brie and serve with crackers. Enjoy!
For those want to challenge themselves in the kitchen, try the Filo Dough Wrapped Brie with Praline Sauce
6 Sheets of Filo Dough
1/4 cup of melted butter
1 moist hand towel-used to cover unused dough sheets
1 pastry brush
On a clean surface lay 2 sheets of Filo dough and brush with melted butter. Place Brie in the center of buttered sheets. Fold sides facing the middle of wheel. Repeat using 2 sheets at a time. Remember, butter the sheets before adding another. 6 sheets may be overkill, but those who do not use Filo dough often will find more sheets work the best.
Bake in oven for 15 minutes or until the pastry is light brown. The finished product will be flaky if done correctly. Take out of oven and transfer to platter or use ceramic plate for display. Pour Praline Sauce liberally over warmed Brie and serve with crackers. Enjoy and happy cooking!
