Time 6h20m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup firmly packed basil leaves
¼ cup toasted pine nuts
1 ½ teaspoons minced garlic
6 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
6 tablespoons grated Romano cheese
⅓ cup olive oil
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
1 (12 ounce) package Brie cheese
½ cup heavy whipping cream

Steps:

  • Blend basil leaves, pine nuts, and garlic together in a blender until evenly chopped. Add Parmesan cheese, Romano cheese, and olive oil; blend until smooth.
  • Beat cream cheese and Brie cheese together in a bowl until nearly smooth.
  • Beat cream in a glass or metal bowl until soft peaks form. Lift your beater or whisk straight up: the whipped cream will form soft mounds rather than a sharp peak. Fold whipped cream into cheese mixture.
