NEVER underestimate the power of food! - Baked Brie

The first time I had baked brie was at a Christmas party. I thought it was the fanciest and most delicious thing at the party. The hostess had baked the brie inside puff pasty with a dash of brown sugar. I was so impressed. I was expecting a super elaborate recipe and was shocked when she told me how EASY it was. I later tried making it, with a little variation.

Here is my baked brie recipe. The previous post has a picture
