Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425 degrees F.

Step 2

Unwrap the brie and cut the skin off the top and sides. Leave the skin on the bottom.

Step 3

Place the brie in an ovenproof dish (approx. 8 inches in diameter).

Step 4

Open the can of Pillsbury® thin pizza crust and remove the dough.

Step 5

Cut the roll of dough into 1-inch pieces.

Step 6

Roll each piece of dough in a pencil shape, approximately three inches long.

Step 7

Surround the brie with the dough, filling the empty spaces and overlapping where necessary.

Step 8

Pour enough apricot preserves on the top of the brie wedge to cover it entirely. You may use more or less than the 3/4 cup.You may use whatever jam/preserves/marmalade that you wish.

Step 9

Add the Grand Marnier to the preserves. This is an optional step. The brie is just as good without it.

Step 10

Top the dish with the slivered almonds. Bake for 18-20 minutes depending on the hotness of your oven.

Step 11

When the brie is melted and the pizza dough is a golden brown, remove it from the oven. Let your guests top the crackers with the brie and they'll be happy campers! (I used Townhouse crackers.)
