That sounds great - if you want to skip the extra fat, you could zap it in
the oven or in the microwave
my favorite version is w/garlic:
Using a knife, score the entire circumference of the brie wheel in the
middle, going around the whole thing, then, using dental floss, tie the
floss around the wheel, fitting it into the scored line, cross the floss and
oull it together, this cuts the brie neatly in half
place one section cut side up on a plate/dish (the one you're going to serve
from)
chop up enough garlic to spread over the top of the brie
in a fry pan, add enough [olive] oil to cover the bottom, add chopped garlic
and saute until the garlic is light golden
using a slotted spoon, carefully spoon the garlic over the top [cut side] of
one of the brie rounds
invert the second brie round on top of the garlic [cut side down] - it'll
look like a sandwich
zap the brie about 15 seconds or so - the cheese should start to bubble
and/or run - fi necessary, zap it again for a couple of seconds until it
reaches this point
remove from microwave & sprinkle some chopped chives or garlic pieces, etc
on top & serve w/bread
NOTE: you can add to the garlic (or substitute) using sliced onlions,
mushrooms, peppers, etc. - all nicely sauteed
