Cheese is one of the things I always have in my refrigerator. Usually there are at least three or four different kinds. Right now I am sitting pretty in the cheese department. Il De France was kind enough to send me some of their Brie to try.
I have had Brie that was good and I have had some Brie that was not so good. It made me a little leary. I now can have confidence in picking out Brie; it will be Il De France for me every time. Their cheese is so creamy, flavorful and deliciously rich.
Il De France is made from quality ingredients and thus you get a quality cheese. Ile De France Brie was the first Brie exported from France to the U.S. in 1936. It is made with la Creme du Jour (Cream of the Day)- fresh cream extracted from the milk the very same day of the cheese making. The cheese is made within 48 hours of the milking of the cows. These methods guarantee a rich, full flavor and delightfully creamy texture.
It is obvious this is a quality cheese that will be consistently delicious. Brie pairs so well with different fruits so I came up with these fabulous Raspberry-Chipotle Chicken Brie Crostini but first let’s talk about that giveaway.
Il De France was kind enough to offer 5 lucky readers a wonderful Il De France Cheese Basket! That’s right 5 of you!
WE HAVE FIVE WINNERS!!!

Raspberry-Chipotle Chicken Brie Crostini
Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup raspberry preserves
- 1 tablespoons orange juice
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon ground chipotle
- 1/4 teaspoon roasted garlic
- 1 1/2 cups cooked chicken, chopped
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 cup onions, thinly sliced
- 1 large baguette
- 5 oz Il De France Brie
Cooking Directions:
In a small saucepan, combine raspberry preserves, orange juice, salt, chipotle, and roasted garlic. Stir and cook over medium-high heat until sauce just starts to bubble. Remove from heat.
Pour sauce over chicken, tossing to coat. Set aside.
Meanwhile, in a medium saucepan melt butter and add onions. Cook over medium heat until caramelized.
Slice baguette into thin slices. Place slices on a baking sheet and toast slightly, just until they start to brown.
Remove from oven and spoon chicken over baguette slices. Top each with a small slice of Brie. Spread a few onions over Brie. Place under a broiler until cheese is melted.
Serve immediately.
Enjoy!

I love cheese, when I visit home each region has it’s own cheese, most are wonderful, and it’s reasonably priced, so i tend to eat quite a lot of cheese.
Would love to try the Slow-Cooker Turkey in Creamy Brie Tarragon Sauce on their site. Sounds perfect and delicious.
