Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
- Cut off the top of the bread boule so the top surface is flat and without crust. Slice the crusty top into sticks and set aside.
- Set the brie wheel on top of the bread and cut out a hole for the brie. Set the brie aside and remove the cut out bread.
- In a small bowl, mix the olive oil with 2 cloves of garlic and brush over the bread. Set the boule aside.
- Carefully cut the top rind off of the brie wheel. Place the brie, cut-side up, inside the bread and set it on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Scoop out about a tablespoon of the center of the brie and pour the white wine into the divot.
- Top the brie with the remaining minced garlic and chopped bacon, and season with pepper. Arrange the bread sticks next to the bread on the baking sheet.
- Bake for 15- 20 minutes, until the brie is completely melted.
- Sprinkle with chives.
- Dip the bread sticks and any other dipping items you'd like in the brie.
- To reheat, bake the brie at 250°F (120°C) for about 15 minutes, until melted.
- Enjoy!

BAKED BRIE
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Using a warmed sharp knife, or unflavored dental floss (See Cook's Note 1) cut the wheel of brie in half horizontally and separate the top half of the wheel from the bottom half. Sprinkle the bottom half of the brie with the dried cherries, toasted almonds, and brown sugar. Replace the top half of the brie and apply pressure to secure the stuffing. Working on a well-floured surface, roll out the puff pastry so that it will fully cover the brie. Place the brie in the middle of the puff pastry and fold the excess pastry around the wheel. Put the wheel aside. Roll out another piece of puff pastry and cut out a circle the same circumference as the top of the brie. Save the trimmings for decorations. Using a pastry brush, brush the egg on top of the brie in the puff pastry and place the circle on top. Brush the top of the circle with egg. Cut out decorations using cookie cutters or a small knife on top of the brie. Brush the entire top side of the brie with the egg and place the brie on a sheet pan lined with parchment paper. Bake for 20 to 30 minutes or until the pastry begins to turn golden brown, then turn the temperature down to 325 degrees F and bake for another 20 minutes. Serve on a pretty platter. See Cook's Note 2.
- Cook's Note 1: Instead of using a knife to cut the brie, use a piece of unflavored dental floss. Make an initial cut half way down, along the outer side of the brie with a pairing knife. Then, take a long piece of dental floss and wrap it around both hands. Starting at the front of the wheel at the initial cut, work through the wheel with the floss, separating the top half of the wheel from the bottom.
- Cook's Note 2: The brie can be made, wrapped securely and stored in the freezer up to a month ahead of time.

Tips:
- Prep the Brie: To ensure an even bake, bring the brie to room temperature before baking. This will also help the cheese melt more evenly.
- Use Puff Pastry: Puff pastry is the key to achieving a golden, flaky crust. Make sure to use a high-quality puff pastry for the best results.
- Don't Overcrowd the Pan: Make sure to leave enough space between the brie bombs on the baking sheet, so they have room to expand while baking.
- Bake Until Golden Brown: The brie bombs should be baked until the pastry is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly. This usually takes about 20-25 minutes.
- Let Cool Before Serving: Let the brie bombs cool for a few minutes before serving, to allow the cheese to set.
