Directions:
On a serving platter, freeze Brie for 30 minutes. With a long, sharp knife, cut Brie horizontally in half. Remove rind from Brie. (This rind can also be eaten if you wish.) On a small plate, place blue cheese and heat on low power in microwave for 1 to 2 minutes, until spreadable. Spread blue cheese onto one cut surface of Brie; top with second piece of Brie. With a sharp knife, cut off and discard top rind. In a small cup, heat preserves on high in microwave for 1 minute. Spread evenly on Brie. Top with nuts. Cover loosely and chill. To serve, heat on low power in microwave 6 to 7 minutes until Brie is softened, rotating dish twice. Serve with fruit (apples and pears are wonderful).
