Brie With Pecans and Cranberries Slow Cooker Recipe

Day 12.

Mmmmmm, brie. My favorite Friday-night plans involve putting the kids to bed early and curling up with a yummy snack, a glass of wine and DVRed The Office reruns.

This slow-cooked brie definitely counts as a yummy snack.

If only the kids would stay in bed rather than pop up every few minutes and force me to hide my snack under a couch cushion.

The Ingredients:

--brie (a round would fit in the crock much better than the triangle. I realized that a bit too late.)
-- 1/3 cup candied pecans
-- 1/4 cup dried cranberries

The Directions:

I used my little 1.5 quart slow cooker. If you don't have one, you can insert a corning ware or other high-heat resistant dish into your large stoneware. It will take longer to heat through and melt, but will work just fine.


--Place brie in bottom of stoneware (or in my case with the triangle, squish to fit)
--chop up candied pecans and cranberries
--dump on top of brie
--cover and cook on low for 4 hours or high for 2.



Serve with sliced apples and/or your favorite crackers.


seriously good. We need to get invited to something so I can bring this along.
