This one started as a happy accident at a small backyard gathering. I had a wheel of brie and a jar of cranberry sauce… and not much else. I wrapped the brie, popped it on the grill, and watched it slowly melt into this soft, creamy center with the cranberry bubbling over like jam. When I opened it up and saw everyone dipping crackers and smiling? That’s when I knew. It’s now my go-to for easy but elegant entertaining — warm, sweet, and absolutely irresistible.

Ingredients

• 1 small wheel of brie (about 8 oz)

• ¼ cup cranberry sauce (whole berry works best)

• 1 teaspoon chopped fresh rosemary (optional)

• Crackers, crostini, or apple slices for serving

• Olive oil or nonstick spray for grill surface

Instructions

1. Preheat your grill to medium heat.

2. Lightly oil a small sheet of foil or a grill-safe baking pan.

3. Place the brie on the foil and spoon cranberry sauce over the top. Sprinkle rosemary if using.

4. Grill over indirect heat with the lid closed for 8–10 minutes, or until the brie is soft and melty.

5. Carefully transfer to a serving plate and serve warm with crackers, crostini, or fruit.
