Cranberry & Apple Brie

Need an easy & delicious appetizer for the Holiday Season?
Look no further... This is one of my go-to Holiday appetizers!
I got this recipe from a friend over 15 years ago and I make it every December...sometimes several times the month for various parties.

Here is what you need:

- Brie Wedge (I love the Triple Cream Brie from Trader Joe's)

- 2 Granny Smith Apples, chopped & diced

- 2/3 cup dried cranberries

- 2/3 cup diced pecans

- 1 stick of butter, melted

-1/3 cup  white sugar

-1/3 cup brown sugar
-Serve with Triscuits

Directions:

I do all of this in the microwave because it's easier & faster, feel free to use the stove top if you prefer.

Melt the stick of butter.

Then, add the sugars & stir together.

Microwave for 30 seconds & stir.

Chop & dice your granny smith apples.

Add diced apples, chopped pecans & dried cranberries to mixture & stir.

Pour the mixture over the wedge of Brie Cheese:

Sometimes I will put it in mircowave for 10 seconds so that Brie is extra soft & warm. 

Serve with Triscuit crackers:

I made this last week for a group of my girlfriends. We were supposed to go to the Justin Timberlake concert, but it was postponed because he has a bruised vocal chord. We all had drinks & dinner that night anyways and I brought this as an appetizer. My friends went nuts over it and wanted the recipe, so I knew I needed to blog it for you guys also :)

If you prep this ahead of time, just add a few squirts of lemon juice to the mixture so the apples don't turn brown.

This is a true crowd pleaser. I make this during the holiday season because it's so festive.

It's SO easy to make and it's delicious! 

Enjoy!!!
