Nutella Brie Raspberry Grilled Cheese

In light of this being National Grilled Cheese Month I wanted to go above and beyond your typical buttered bread with some cheese slapped in the middle.  I wanted.. different. The more I thought about it the more I tossed around oh about 372,000 combinations but they all have one theme in common.. savory.

Well the more I got to thinking I figured everyone would be doing savory.  *I* wanted different. I wanted far fetched and one of those “OMG! Did you just see what The Kitchen Whisperer just posted???  She’s crazy!  No, she’s BRILLIANT!” type of reaction.

I’m thinking I definitely pushed the limits on this one and went totally left when everyone else in the world was going right.

So lemme tell you what people, while this is an EXTREMELY messy sandwich, this is probably one of the best grilled cheeses I’ve ever had!   See I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE Brie en Croute with Jam (pretty much brie cheese with raspberry jam on top encased in a very buttery, soft pastry dough). Okay so it’s not like running down your face messy but grab a few extra napkins or be like me and lick your fingers and then swoop the excess that oozes out on to your plate with said finger.  Repeat.

But just look how gorgeous that is!  All that creamy sweet brie cheese infused with the raspberry jam.  Then to act as that rounder of flavors, the chocolate hazelnut of the Nutella.  Seriously folks, this was pure bliss!

You know you want one right now!  That warm buttery sweet bread, the tenderness of the cheese and fillings.  Mmmmm

*Pssst!  Wipe your chin, you’re drooling again *wink*
