¾ cup fresh raspberries or ¾ cup frozen unsweetened raspberries, thawed & drained
½ cup chopped roasted red pepper (from the jar is fine)
2 jalapenos, seeded and minced
2 tablespoons red onions, finely minced
¼ cup seeded and crushed tomatoes
2 teaspoons fresh cilantro, minced
1 clove garlic, crushed
½ teaspoon dried ancho chile powder
2 tablespoons raspberry vinegar or 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
⅛ teaspoon salt
2 lbs brie cheese, wheel or wedge,at room temperature
1 (6 ounce) bag honey-roasted almonds, chopped

1
Combine all the salsa ingredients in a small saucepan and simmer together over medium low heat, stirring gently, for only 3 to 5 minutes to incorporate the flavors, then remove and chill for at least 90 minutes (you can make this the day before, as well).
2
Use a sharp knife to skim and remove the soft white layer from the top of the brie.
3
Place brie on a microwave-safe serving dish and microwave for 30 seconds to 1 minute, depending on the power of your appliance, to soften the cheese (be careful- you don't want it to be runny).
4
Pour the chilled raspberry salsa over the entire top, letting it run down the sides.
5
Sprinkle the chopped honey roasted almonds over the top, serve with crackers or bread rounds, and enjoy!
