This dish is perfect for parties or holiday events. I personally can’t eat a whole round of brie between me and my husband so I tend to think of this as a group or party dish where everyone takes a little. If you do find you have leftovers, it will save in the refrigerator for a few days and leftovers can be reheated in the microwave.
