Mile High Brie

Jump to Recipe·Print Recipe

Mile High Brie - a truly spectacular appetizer from A Pinch of Joy When Apple Valley Sue is invited to events, the hostess requests she bring her spectacular Mile High Brie.  You know those requests mean Yummy captalized!  Apple Valley Sue was sweet enough to send a copy to me — another great recipe that has become a signature dish!

She says: “here is a great appetizer for parties.  It is just 6 ingredients that you throw together  on top of a round of brie with a couple of sauces drizzled on top.  They are especially a hit at Christmas parties — everyone loves it.  I saw Mile High Brie in a showcase last year at one of the grocery stores where they were selling for about $15.  You can make them for a lot less!  Here’s the ingredients:

  • One round of Brie, top rind removed
  • Walnuts
  • Red Maraschino cherries (or a mix of red and green for Christmas)
  • Pecans
  • Dried cranberries
  • Slivered chocolate
  • Caramel sauce
  • Chocolate sauce

Put the nuts and fruits on top of the brie and drizzle with the sauces. 
Serve with your favorite crackers.  Hope you enjoy!”

The photo above is a baby brie, about 7 ounces,  That makes about 12 servings, perfect for a small group.  It is super spectacular using a larger brie!   The  quantities given are general, because the amount used will vary according to the size of the brie you choose. Cutting the maraschino cherries in half or in quarters, can make it easier to eat — but Sue liked the bright color of the whole cherry.   Since Sue sent it, it has been an annual addition to our New Year’s Eve!  Thanks so much, Sue, for sharing!

    Wow, that’s a great recipe. I’ve always loved brie with brown sugar, but never would have thought of it with chocolate. Yum! Thanks for sharing on Crazy Sweet Tuesday!
