Chili and garlic powder shine in this cheesy loaf that’s best right out of the oven. It’s always a favorite when I entertain. —Mary Spencer, Greendale, Wisconsin

Ingredients

1 round loaf sourdough bread (1 pound)
1 tablespoon butter, softened
1 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon ground mustard
1 round (8 ounces) Brie cheese, rind removed

Directions

Preheat oven to 350°. Cut top third off loaf of bread; hollow out enough bread from bottom to make room for cheese. Cube removed bread; set aside. Using a knife, make 2-in. cuts into loaf around edge of bread at 1-in. intervals. Spread inside of bread with butter.
Combine chili powder, sugar, garlic powder and mustard; sprinkle 2 teaspoons into loaf. Top with cheese; sprinkle with remaining spice mixture. Replace bread top.
Transfer to an ungreased baking sheet. Bake 25-30 minutes or until cheese is melted. Let stand 10 minutes. Serve with bread cubes.

Not my favorite way to do Brie. I think I prefer sweeter seasonings/toppings.

This is an easy and delicious appetizer!!I used a round loaf of Portuguese bread, in place of the sourdough bread and it was great. I served this at a family cookout and it disappeared in minutes!
