  • 8 ounces marscapone cheese
  • 3 tablespoons heavy cream
  • 1 tablespoon Olivelle sweet cream butter infused olive oil
  • 2 cups Bonne Maman fig preserves
  • 1 cup shelled pistachios, toasted and finely chopped (to toast pistachios, preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Place pistachios on a baking tray and bake approximately 2 minutes. Watch carefully so they do not burn.)

  • When brie mixture is beaten until smooth (there may be a few small lumps in the mixture), spread it evenly in a decorative pie plate. Cover with plastic wrap and place in refrigerator for 15 minutes.
  • Remove pie plate from refrigerator and spread fig jam over the brie mixture.
  • Sprinkle chopped pistachios over the fig jam.
  • Drizzle hot honey over pistachios.
  • Cover and place in refrigerator. Allow brie to sit at room temperature for 30 minutes before serving.
