Snowcapped Brie Wedges (Print Version)

Creamy Brie triangles dusted with Parmesan, styled like snowy peaks, garnished with fresh thyme sprigs for elegance.

# What You'll Need:

→ Cheese

01 - 14 oz Brie cheese, well chilled

02 - 1.4 oz Parmesan cheese, finely grated

→ Garnish

03 - Fresh thyme sprigs (optional)

# How to Make It:

01 - Using a sharp knife, cut the Brie into 16 triangular wedges, approximately 0.9 oz each, ensuring the cheese is well chilled for clean cuts.

02 - Place the Brie wedges upright on a serving platter with pointed ends facing upward to resemble a mountain range.

03 - Generously dust the tops of the Brie wedges with finely grated Parmesan cheese to mimic fresh snow.

04 - Garnish the platter with fresh thyme sprigs if desired to add a touch of greenery.

05 - Serve immediately with crackers or slices of baguette on the side.

# Additional Tips::

01 -

No cooking required means you can assemble it while your guests arrive, keeping your hands free and your stress low.
The contrast of warm, creamy Brie against the sharp, salty Parmesan dust creates a flavor moment that feels fancier than the effort it takes.
It's naturally vegetarian and somehow manages to look like you spent hours planning, when really you spent ten minutes.

02 -

The Brie temperature matters more than you'd think—take it out of the fridge too early and it becomes a creamy puddle; too late and it cracks when you cut it.
Dust the Parmesan just before serving, because sitting too long makes it absorb moisture from the cheese and lose that pristine, snowy appearance.

03 -

A bench scraper or offset spatula makes it easier to move the delicate wedges from cutting board to platter without them tipping.
If you're serving more than eight people, doubling the recipe and using two platters creates a more dramatic presentation than a crowded single board.
