  • “Hi, Tish!Your recipe is simmering on the stove as I type.It is DELICIOUS!I used Cream Sherry because I had on hand and goofed when I added all 6 tablespoons to the pan.I ended up still using 3 more tablespoons with the cornstarch.Sure didn’t hurt the taste a bit.This is our first use of “Brie” and it won’t be the last.Love cheese, but just haven’t tried Brie before.Thanx for a great recipe!”

  • “This tasted alot like cream of mushroom soup. And I couldn’t get the brie cheese to melt. I cooked for a long time. But still worth trying. Smelled wonderful.”

  • “this soup is awesome! Exactly like the one we had at an upscale eatery in town. I ddn’t have shallots so used one clove of garlic, minced. I also left out the nutmeg.”

  • “This is a very good soup. Next time I will try a better Brie cheese for more flavor – definately a hit with the family.”

  • “Yummy!The mushrooms were so divine in it!I don’t use alcohol in cooking, so used Juicy Juice Cherry flavor instead- just as yummy!I have been looking for a Cream of Brie recipe from an old Bed & Breakfast in Westminster, Maryland.This was just the ticket!”
