Steps:
- Quarter apple and pear lengthwise and cut into each quarter on an angle to remove the core. Slice apple and pear into 1/4-inch thick slices. Squeeze a little lemon juice over the fruit to slow browning.
- Cut the top rind off the brie and place in the microwave on high for 60 seconds. Depending on the ripeness of the cheese, it will take 60 to 90 seconds on high to heat and melt. If brie is not yet soft and hot after 1 minute, place it back in microwave for another 30 seconds on high.
- Serve the softened, warm brie with a platter of fruit and Melba toasts for dipping and spreading. Reheat brie if it tightens up for 20 to 30 seconds at a time on high.
PEAR TARTLETS
Easy recipe! Hmm... not sure about the exact measurements of the sugar and cinnamon, because I used one packet of Sugar in the Raw for the sugar and sprinkled on the cinnamon, but I think this is about right. For the sugar I'm sure you could use some brown sugar instead. For the puff pastry I used frozen Pepperidge Farms. Each sheet yields about three 3" circles. Prep time does not include pastry thawing time.

Tips:
- For the best results, use ripe but firm pears. This will help them hold their shape during baking.
- To easily core the pears, use a melon baller or a small spoon.
- If you don't have puff pastry on hand, you can use a store-bought pie crust instead.
- Be sure to preheat the oven before baking the tartlets. This will help them cook evenly.
- Keep an eye on the tartlets while they're baking. They should be golden brown and the cheese should be melted and bubbly.
- Let the tartlets cool slightly before serving. This will make them easier to handle.
