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

1/2 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

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!
