Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
3/4 cup dates -- chopped
1 small apple, peeled, -- cored and diced
1 small firm, ripe pear, peeled -- cored and diced
1/2 cup dried cranberries
1/2 cup pecans
1/3 cup rose wine -- apple juice, or
apple jack
2 pounds wheel ripe Brie -- well chilled
1 large baguette French bread, -- thinly sliced*
toasted if desired.
Preheat oven to 350° F.
In a large bowl, combine dates, apple, pear, cranberries, pecans. Add
wine, apple juice or apple jack. Set mixture aside to allow fruit to
marinate and soften for 2 hours.
Cut Brie wheel in half horizontally to make two layers. Place one layer,
rind-side down, in a serving dish. Spread with 2-1/4 cups of the fruit
mixture. Place remaining half of Brie on top of fruit with rind-side
facing up to enclose the fruit. Spoon remaining fruit mixture onto center
top of Brie Wheel. Seal with plastic wrap and refrigerate up to two days.
Bake Brie, uncovered, in a 350° oven until it melts and the edges and the
center is warm, approximately 25-30 minutes. Do not overcook as it will be
runny and difficult to spread.
To serve, spread melted Brie onto sliced Baguette.
