Sugar and Nut Glazed Brie

1/4 cup brown sugar, packed

1/4 cup walnuts, pecans, almonds, or macadamia nuts, broken

1 tablespoon whiskey or brandy

1 (14 ounce) round of Brie cheese

Apple wedges, grapes, and crackers

Preheat oven to 500 degrees.

In a small mixing bowl, stir together sugar, nuts, whiskey or brandy. Mixture may be refrigerated up to a week.

To serve, place cheese on large round oven-proof platter or in a 9-inch pie plate. Bake for 4-5 minutes.

Sprinkle sugar mixture over top; bake 2-3 minutes more or until sugar is melted. The cheese should be heated through but not melted. (P.S...be careful removing the cheese that you don't pierce it).

Arrange apple slices, grapes, and crackers around the cheese.
