~Place whole heads of garlic in a heavy saucepan with olive or cooking oil.
Cook and stir over medium heat for 5 minutes. Cover and reduce heat to
medium-low for 15 minutes or till garlic is soft. Remove heads of garlic
from oil; drain on paper towels; cool. ~ To assemble Brie, carefully slice
the thin rind off one of the flat sides of the Brie wheel(s). Place on a
baking sheet, cut side up. Divide heads of garlic into cloves and peel.
With a small, sharp knife, slice cloves diagonally, being careful not to
completely sever each slice. Gently press garlic cloves into fans. Arrange
garlic fans and olives atop Brie wheel(s)* ~ Bake uncovered, in a 400F oven
for 10 to 12 minutes or till Brie is warm and slightly softened. Sprinkle
warm Brie with parsley. Carefully transfer to a plate and serve with apple
wedges or bread. Makes 16 servings. * To make ahead: At this point, you can
wrap the Brie whell(s) in plastic wrap and chill for up to 3 days. Before
serving, heat through as directed.
