Easy Appetizer: Baked Brie

Today I want to share with you a super easy appetizer that I love to make during football season. This is my one piece of fancy during the season. My brother and JC love it and I love that I can make it and just set it out and watch the games. This is an easy game time recipe, nothing crazy and actually a very popular appetizer at parties. I'm sure you have had baked brie at one party or another and it's really super delicious and versatile. You can add anything you want to it but I make mine with orange marmalade and honey!

BAKED BRIE
INGREDIENTS:1 wheel brie cheese (8oz)1 pkg refrigerated crescent rolls2 tbsp orange marmalade1 tbsp honey

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Unroll pkg of crescent rolls on parchment paper until flat. Remove 4 triangles and set aside. Place brie roll in center of dough. Top brie with marmalade and drizzle honey. Wrap brie cheese with crescent rolls until fully covered. It takes about 4 triangles to cover but I always use a 5th one to top the cheese and make sure it's all held together. 

Place in oven and cook for about 15-18 minutes or until crust is golden brown. Remove from oven. Let sit for about 5 minutes and then transfer to serving plate.

Serve with pita chips, club crackers, fruit, etc. I like to serve the brie with pita chips to give it a sweet and salty effect. 

See? It doesn't really get much easier than that. I love everything about this appetizer, especially the flaky crust and ooey gooey cheese!! YUM!!!
Have you ever made baked brie? Do you use marmalades, fresh fruit or just honey?
