Ingredients:
Caramelized Shallots:
4 large or 6 medium shallots, thinly sliced
1 tbsp unsalted butter
1/4 tsp kosher salt
1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
10 oz brie cheese, rind removed and cubed
1/4 cup cream cheese
1/4 cup almonds, sliced
Honey, to taste
Flaky salt, to taste
Instructions:
Preheat a pan on medium-high heat for 2 minutes. Add the shallots with a bit of olive oil and lower the heat to medium-low. Let the shallots cook and caramelize for 15-20 minutes, then add the butter and salt. Cook for another 10 minutes, mixing often. Add the balsamic vinegar and cook for 2-3 minutes longer. Remove from heat and set aside.
In a mixing bowl, add the brie cheese and whip. After 2 minutes, add the cream cheese and continue to whip until the mixture is soft and creamy. Spread the cheese in a shallow bowl and top with the caramelized shallots. Sprinkle with almonds and finish with a drizzle of honey and flaky salt.
