Preheat oven to 350° F. In a small pot, stir together raspberry jam, minced Habañero pepper, and butter. Once warm and combined, remove from heat.

Garnish finished baked brie with fresh raspberries and serve extra spicy raspberry jam on the side.

Expert Tips

Habañero peppers are incredibly hot. It is recommended that you wear rubber gloves while handling them, but at a minimum, be extra sure to wash your hands well after you remove the seeds and mince one.
