This Brie Cheese Wheel with Rosemary Wreath uses ingredients you probably already have—because good cooking shouldn’t require a special trip to the store. If you don’t have fresh rosemary, sage or thyme can substitute nicely for a slightly different herb infusion. I like to add a little extra olive oil brushed on before placing the wreath—that’s my secret for everything to stick well and look polished.

Any leftover brie stores well wrapped in parchment paper inside the fridge for up to a week. Rosemary sprigs dry quickly, so wrap them in a damp paper towel before refrigerating if you have extras. This way, your next Brie Cheese Wheel with Rosemary Wreath is ready without a fresh herb run.

From start to finish, this Brie Cheese Wheel with Rosemary Wreath takes about 30 minutes, including prep and waiting. While softening, prepare accompaniments like fruit or warm bread. Your kitchen will smell incredible—herbaceous rosemary mixed with creamy cheese aromas.

Variations include honey drizzle, mixing fresh herbs, or toasted nuts. The rosemary wreath always steals the show, but a touch of sweetness complements it beautifully. The classic with rosemary, sea salt, and red pepper flakes gets requested most at our gatherings.
