Mindy Kaling on a designed background

It’s no secret that we atEatingWellare big fans of warm, gooey Brie cheese. Whether we’restuffing it into a sheet of puff pastry with jamor melting it intoa rich plate of pasta, there’s no shortage of ways to enjoy this creamy ingredient. And while we might be feeling a little sluggish from the holiday season’s indulgent menu, that doesn’t mean we won’t be serving up some comfort food this January—including Mindy Kaling’s super-easy baked Brie.

Kaling says this take on the classic appetizer is perfect to share with friends and family, but it’s so delicious that you’ll be tempted to keep it all for yourself. Kaling starts with a wedge of Brie, which she slices down the middle height-wise and sandwiches with slivered almonds and apricot jam, then wraps it in crescent roll dough. While she doesn’t mention the cook time, you’ll want to at least cook this cheesy delight as long as the dough package instructs, around 12 minutes at 350°F or 375°F depending on your sheet pan type.

While one commenter gave Kaling some grief for sabotaging their new year’s resolutions, we know that kicking comfort food off your plate entirely isno way to stick to a healthy goal. Instead, enjoy a treat like this baked Brie in moderation—which probably means sharing it or storing the leftovers—rather than deprive yourself of it entirely.

If you’re feeling a little too indulgent post-Brie, you could always refresh yourself with another favorite Mindy Kaling recipe, like herdreamy green smoothie. No matter what, this ooey-gooey dish is sure to leave you feeling cozy and comforted this winter.
