Almond Baked Brie

Almond Baked Brie
1/2 cup firmly packed brown sugar 
1/2 cup butter 
1/4 teaspoon Watkins Cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon Watkins Nutmeg
1 ounce amaretto (Don't have amaretto on hand? Substitute 1 to 2 tsp. Watkins Almond Extract)
1 round Brie cheese 
1/4 cup sliced almonds or chopped walnuts
Baguette slices, toast rounds, crackers, or sliced apples
Preheat oven to 350 F. 

In a heavy saucepan, heat brown sugar and butter over medium heat until smooth and thickened. Remove from heat. Add cinnamon, nutmeg, and amaretto. Mix well.  Place brie in an oven-safe casserole dish. Top with sauce and sprinkle with almonds or walnuts. Bake 10 to 15 minutes until brie is soft. (Instead of baking, you may microwave brie at 30-second intervals until soft and warm.) 

Serve with baguette slices, toast rounds, crackers, or sliced apples.  Yield: 4 to 6 servings, depending on the size of the brie round
