Brie wedges sculpted like mountain peaks, dusted with Parmesan, garnished with thyme for a stylish, quick appetizer.

# What You'll Need:

→ Cheese

01 - 14 oz Brie cheese, well chilled

# How-To Steps:

01 - Using a sharp knife, cut the well-chilled Brie into 16 triangular wedges, each about 0.88 oz, ensuring clean, precise cuts.

02 - Place the Brie wedges upright on a serving platter with pointed ends facing upward, creating a mountain peak effect.

03 - Generously dust the tops of the Brie wedges with finely grated Parmesan to mimic fresh snow.

04 - Optionally, garnish the platter with fresh thyme sprigs for a hint of greenery.

05 - Serve immediately alongside crackers or slices of baguette.

# Expert Advice:

01 -

It looks absolutely stunning on a platter but takes barely ten minutes to pull together.
The contrast between creamy Brie and crispy Parmesan creates a texture that keeps people reaching for more.
No cooking required means you can focus on other dishes or just enjoy the moment with your guests.

02 -

Room-temperature Brie will squish and tear instead of cutting cleanly, so the chill time is non-negotiable despite feeling like an extra step.
If your knife starts sticking, dip it in hot water and wipe it clean between cuts—this prevents Brie from dragging and ruining your wedges.

03 -

If you want to make this fancier, lightly toast your Parmesan in a dry skillet on low heat, let it cool completely, then dust it on—the flavor deepens without overwhelming the delicate Brie.
Swap the Brie for Camembert if you want something slightly earthier, or triple-cream cheese if your crowd loves maximum richness.
