And by “heat,” I mean “hit”

A little late for Thanksgiving, but I made the brie for a potluck dinner last night and it was a big heat. And easy to do too.

I actually made both of these appetizers today for a baby shower. Unfortunately, the person who hosted the shower didn’t have an oven. So I had to head up the artichoke dip in the microwave (worked pretty well, but I didn’t have that nice golden brown top), and I had to bake the brie in a toaster oven.

Although, I did wrap the brie in a pastry sheet and that worked fantastic.

Both were a huge hit. Thanks for the tip about the silken tofu. Not one of the guys who attended (yes, guys did come to this baby shower because we had guy-appropriate activities) even suspected I had slipped something healthy in the dip!

Great job, Macheesmo!

I just wanted to let you know that I made the cranberry brie wheel as an appetizer for our Thanksgiving dinner tonight, and it was a HUGE hit! Everybody loved it and was asking me how I made it. I was almost embarrassed to tell them how easy it was :) Anyway, just wanted to say thanks for the recipe. I’ve been following your blog for a while now and haven’t been disappointed by a single recipe yet!!

I’m practically drooling because your brie sprung a leak. It looks amazing.

Thanksgiving is at my parents every year. I plan on calling my mom first thing in the morning to tell her that we have to change whatever she planned on serving for the appetizers.

And Becca, I bet the brie would be wonderful cold. (Please let there be leftovers at my parents!)
