Murray's French Double Crème Brie
This butter bomb is your excuse to go nuts—the pleasantly mild, exceptionally creamy wedge is just begging for your creative touch. Layer with apple slices, bake in puff pastry, and serve alongside warm caramel for an dessert beyond decadent, or spread on focaccia and top with roasted tomatoes and fresh herbs for a stellar starter. However you choose to show off your cheese-serving prowess, be sure to allow this luscious wedge, fashioned from fresh cow’s milk before developing a velvety white rind, to warm to room temperature for full unctuous potential. Balance all that butter with a sparkling white, like a fruity Prosecco or a crisp Cava.
Unless noted otherwise, Murray's cheeses sold by the lb ship in multiple 0.5 lb increments. To request a whole wheel, please contact the Murray's team at orders@murrayscheese.com at least 72 hours prior to your desired ship date.
