2/3 Cup Brown Sugar
2 oz Kahlua

Lightly coat the brie with oil and/or butter and place in the oven on an oiled cheet pan and bake for 15 - 20 minutes. While baking the brie slice up half of your pear and cut 8 – 10 slices of French baguette. Next mix your pecans, brown sugar, and Kahula in a large bowl to form a soft topping. When your brie is almost finished cooking turn your oven to broil and place the slices of baguette next to the brie. Let both the brie and bread toast for no more than 5 minutes. Pull your brie and slices of baguette out of the oven; lightly coat the baguettes with oil. Plate your pears, lingonberry on a red cabbage, your brie covered in your Kahlua pecan mix and your baguette.
