Notes
- For our recipe, we use an 8-ounce wheel, but if you're serving more than like 6-8 people, you might want to get a 12-ounce wheel.
- Double cream brie has a slightly firmer texture and is ideal for baking because it holds its shape better while still becoming gooey. Triple cream is richer and creamier but can be more challenging to handle when melted.
- President, Marin French, or Trader Joe’s options are reliable and widely available.
