Lazy-American Style Baked Brie

Lazy-American Style Baked Brie
Because Seriously Who Has Time to Make This From Scratch

If you've read anything on this blog, met me, or have ever been to my apartment, you know I'm no domestic goddess.  I'd like to be one... but whatever. 

I do, however, love a party. 

So what's a gal to do with a taste for fun but little else?  Invite some folks over for good new-fangled comfort food like Lazy-American Style Baked Brie.

Lazy-American Style Baked Brie Recipe:
1. Wheel of brie
2. Can of pre-made coissant dough
3. CrasinsTM, or for those of you not familiar with OceanSpray's work, "dried cranberries"
4. Honey
5. The tiniest bit of sea salt

Instructions:
- Put the brie in the middle of a pan / cookie sheet
- Take the croissant dough, pull it, twist it around, and place in circular formation around the dough
- Bake until the cheese starts to ooze a little / the coissant dough is lightly browned
- Remove & let cool for a few minutes
- Drizzle with honey
- Sprinkle on crasins
- Put a tiny little sea salt on top

Snack Table for One Instructions:
- Use a frozen soft pretzel instead of coissant dough
- Instead of using the oven, microwave the frozen pretzel with a slice of brie
- For the domestically-impaired: don't try putting the pan in the microwave.  It won't fit.  Also, it's metal.
- Get a plate. Just a normal plate.

Prep time: About 5 minutes.

Consumption:
- Just eat it before everyone else does.
- No, seriously.
- I've been making this for years, and it is always the first food to get completely finished at a party. So don't be lazy.

Yum Factor:  Extreme

Warnings: Invite vegans to your party.  I can't emphasize enough how important it is to eat this before everyone else does. So I just did it again here.

 
You're welcome.
