Ingredients

1 large or 2 smaller Boule Bread (I like to do 2 to have one for the next night leftovers.)

1 stick Butter, melted.

3 Garlic Cloves, crushed

2 Tsp. Fresh Thyme leaves or 3 tsp Dried Thyme

2 sprigs of Freshly Chopped Rosemary or 2 tsp. Dried Rosemary

Crazy Janes mixed up salt and pepper about 1 tsp. each

1 – 8 oz. Brie Wheel cut into thin strips (Tip when cutting cheese — spray your knife with Pam or non-stick spray. Helps a lot!)

1 can, Whole Berry Cranberry sauce.

Instructions 

Preheat your oven at 350F degrees.

Using a large serrated knife

Crosshatch the boule, spacing about 1 inch in both directions. Make sure you don’t slice the bread all the way to the bottom. This (#) is what it will look like from the top.

In a small bowl

Mix the melted butter, garlic, thyme, rosemary and seasonings of salt and pepper.

With a brush

Brush the boule with the butter mixture, make sure you get inside of the crosshatches.

Stuff each crosshatch with the Brie and Cranberry sauce

Place the bread on a large piece of tin foil. Then I pour the leftover butter mixture (if you need more — add a little olive oil to it) all over the bread.

Wrap up the bread in the foil and bake about 25 minutes.

Longer if you made it before and it is coming from the refrigerator. Before serving — let it sit for 10 minutes in the foil.

Enjoy and Happy Holidays.
Keep safe and well. — Margi
