- Shortly before serving, assemble the Brie: Using a long serrated knife, cut the Brie in half horizontally, separating the top from the bottom.
- Place the top to one side and cover the bottom layer with half of the cherry mixture; cover with half the pecans.
- Replace the top, and with the same knife, gently saw off the thin white rind of the top of the cheese.
- Spoon the remaining cherry mixture on top and cover with remaining nuts.
- Serve at room temperature, accompanied by French bread.
- (Do not refrigerate, it will make the pecans soggy.).
