Get in my belly

It's Super Bowl weekend! Yay. I really don't care who wins. I just want a good game, clever commercials and yummy food.

Here is a "fancy pants" appetizer that is so easy, but is so very tasty. We picked this up at our monthly cooking class. The classes are so interactive and informative. We always walk away with good ideas and a packet full of recipes.

Give this a whirl sometime...

BRIE WITH MACADaMIA NUTS AND BROWN SUGAR
1 wedge of brie with skin on (1/4 of a wheel)
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 chopped macadamia nuts (you could also use pecans, I suppose)
1 T. brandy or Navan Liqueur (a vanilla cognac)

Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Bake brie for 5 minutes. Mix other ingredients into a paste. Take brie from over and top brie with the paste. Bake again for three minutes.

Serve with crackers, sliced apples or pears.
