Ingredients

  • 1 round of Double Brie
  • ⅔ cup of toasted pistachio nuts
  • 1 cup castor sugar
  • ½ cup water
  • Crackers

Method

  1. Place the cheese on a serving dish and allow it to sit at room temperature.
  2. To make the toffee, place the sugar and water in a small pot. Put this onto a high heat and allow it to bubble rapidly - but don't stir it.
  3. The toffee should turn slightly thick and have a slight golden tinge. Remove from heat and allow to sit and thicken further - it is very hot and is still cooking.
  4. Toast the nuts in a pan, constantly stirring.
  5. Once their colour changes to a light golden brown, remove and allow to cool before arranging on top of the cheese with the mint.
  6. After the toffee has rested for a few minutes quickly pour it on top of the cheese - it will set rapidly so be confident with your pouring.
  7. Serve with crackers of your choice.
