I have to admit, the first time I tasted brie cheese (BY ITSELF), I thought it resembled stale laundry. I don’t believe its meant to be eaten alone. I picked up this idea from my friend Natalia K. She is a wonderful home cook who always comes up with something new and fancy. At our annual church camping trip, her camp site always smells best!
The combination of brie with walnuts, dripping with honey is addictive. It always goes fast when served at parties. (It was torture not to be able to indulge in this soft cheese dish while I was pregnant!) I split this recipe in half and enjoy it in the evening with my hubby. Of course that means we get to have it twice!
Cost to Make: $8 to $9
Servings: 4 to ….. well, sometimes 14!
1 (8oz) package of Brie soft ripened cheese (round or log shaped)
1 (4 1/2 oz) package Table Water Crackers
1/2 to 3/4 cup chopped walnuts
1/2 cup honey
How to Assemble Brie with walnuts and honey:
1. Unwrap the brie and place it on a platter (it is supposed to have rubbery white stuff on the surface; its edible)
2. Cut the brie in half or into triangles if you like.
3. Pile on the chopped walnuts
4. Drizzle generously with honey
Serve with water crackers.

Go to Costco for the Brie! It’s soooo cheap. Cheap cheap cheap–I love Costco!
Good to know, thanks Tanya!
Mmmm, I have loved this stuff since the first time Natalia had it out.
I love it.
I even tricked my Russian friends into thinking it’s Belizean recipe
