This is a recipe I will treasure for a long time ~ truly TDF & so easy-to-fix! For 2 of us, I used a sml rd of brie (exactly half the wt), so all else was halved easily. I used Bailey's for the liqueur & pecans vs walnuts because I had them on hand. Pears would be outstanding w/this, but I simply forgot to get them. I served it w/crackers + pita crisps lightly brushed w/butter. Pita crisps or water crackers are best here as most other crackers would add a salty taste I would not find welcome w/this. Made for the March Photo Challenge & TYSM for sharing this wonderful recipe w/us. :-)
