Camembert Baked in the Box

By RandrR

This tender, melty cheese bakes in its box to keep it from collapsing. Be sure to buy Camembert in a box that’s stapled, not glued.

Ingredients

• One 8-ounce wheel of Camembert, unwrapped
• Crackers and apple slices, for serving

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 375°. Set the box of cheese in a baking dish and bake, uncovered, until just melted, about 15 minutes. Slice off the top rind and serve immediately with crackers and apple slices.


Nothing goes better with an oozy, buttery cheese like Camembert than a rich Champagne.
