Very nice baked Brie - tasted lovely - but I made this without knowing the answer to a very necessary question: I was unclear whether or not the rind needed to be removed from the Brie before scoring and baking? I wasn't sure what to do. I did remove the rind and it was fine, but I'm not too sure if this was the right thing to do...
