# Step-by-Step Guide:
01 -
Remove the rind from the chilled Brie using a sharp knife and cut into cubes. Allow the cubes to soften at room temperature.
02 -
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Arrange the prosciutto slices into small nests on a baking sheet and bake for 10 to 12 minutes until crispy. Let cool, then chop into small pieces.
03 -
Place the Brie cubes in a food processor and pulse for 3 minutes, scraping down the sides with a rubber spatula. Pulse for an additional 3 minutes, scrape sides again, then whip for 2 more minutes until creamy and fluffy.
04 -
Transfer the whipped Brie to a serving bowl and spread evenly. Drizzle hot honey over the surface, then sprinkle with chopped prosciutto, pistachios, and fresh herbs as desired. Serve with crackers or baguette slices.

Allowing the Brie to come to room temperature ensures a smoother, creamier texture when whipped.
