Chef Franklin, of Uncle Giuseppe's Marketplace, shows News 12's Lily Stolzberg how to make Strawberry & Mascarpone Topped Brie.

Yield: 16 oz (1 Fruit-Topped Brie)

Ingredients:

· 0.02 lb. Belgioioso Mascarpone

· 8 oz President Brie Wheel (or Brie of your choice)

· 6 fresh strawberries, sliced in half (0.04 lb.)

· 12 fresh blueberries (0.025 oz)

· 0.02 oz fresh fruit honey glaze

1. Prepare the Brie: Unwrap the 8 oz President Brie Wheel and place it on a serving plate or board.

2. Spread Mascarpone: Evenly spread mascarpone over the top of the brie, creating a smooth circular layer.

3. Arrange Strawberries: Place the halved strawberries around the outer rim of the brie, forming a border. Use the remaining strawberry halves to fill the center, arranging them in a rose-like pattern for a visually appealing presentation.

4. Add Blueberries: Scatter the blueberries over the strawberries to create contrast and enhance the presentation.

5. Drizzle with Glaze: Using a brush, lightly coat the strawberries and blueberries with fruit honey glaze, ensuring an even, glossy finish.

Your Strawberry & Mascarpone Topped Brie is now ready to serve! Enjoy as a decadent appetizer or dessert.
