Baked Brie

Baked Brie
1/4 cup apricot jam
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup honey
Wheel of Brie, about 20 ounces or 6 inches in diameter
1/2 cup chopped pecans
***
Directions:
In a medium bowl, whisk together jam, brown sugar, and honey.
Slice off the top rind of the brie cheese. With a knife or spoon, scoop out a wide hole in the cheese, leaving about a half inch in the bottom and around the sides. Save the removed cheese on a plate.
Fill in the hole with half of the mixture, then place the removed cheese on top of the mixture. Top the cheese with the rest of the mixture and top off everything with the pecans.
Preheat oven to 375. Place the Brie in an ovenproof dish, covered loosely with foil and bake until the cheese starts melting, about 29 minutes. Remove the foil for a few minutes so the pecans get a bit toasted. Serve with a spreader and crackers.
