Now…I’m sure you are wondering why these “pecans” look an awful lot like WALNUTS! Well that is simply because they are walnuts. You see, when you live in a house with hungry teenagers, even the nuts you buy to make your blog posts with are fair game. But luckily for them and for us, walnuts and pecans can be swapped out of these brie bites so easily with nobody the wiser. Maybe not even your teens when they ask, “Mo-om! Can you make more of those honey nut cheese things again?” Yeah ok.

What is the White Fuzz on Brie?

Have you ever been puzzled by the white fuzzy coating on Brie cheese? Don’t worry, you’re not alone! This coating is actually completely normal and expected. The white fuzz, known as bloomy rind, is formed from the growth of mold on the surface of the cheese. While it might not sound very appetizing, don’t let that put you off. In fact, bloomy rind is what gives Brie its characteristic flavor and texture.
