Sugar and Nut Glazed Brie

from Half Assed Kitchen

1/4 cup packed brown sugar

1/4 cup broken walnuts, pecans, almonds or hazelnuts

1 Tablespoon Brandy (or whiskey...you all have some of that in your cupboards, don't you?)

1 14-ounce round of Brie cheese

Preheat oven to 450 degrees.

Stir together sugar, nuts and brandy (or whiskey). (You can cover this and chill it up to a week ahead of time.)

Place brie on a pie plate. Bake for 4 to 5 minutes.

Sprinkle sugar mixture on top of brie. Bake 2 to 3 minutes more, until sugar is melted and cheese is heated through but not melted.

Serve with apples (brushed with lemon juice to keep them from browning) and crackers.
