- Sprinkle pecans: Generously sprinkle the chopped pecans over the praline mustard to add a crunchy texture.
- Drizzle honey: Drizzle the tablespoon of honey over the pecans to enhance sweetness and create a glossy topping.

Notes
- For best results, use a whole round of brie about 8 to 12 ounces in size.
- You can substitute praline mustard with a mix of Dijon mustard and maple syrup if praline mustard is unavailable.
- Chop the pecans coarsely to maintain a nice crunch contrast with the creamy cheese.
- This appetizer is best enjoyed immediately to fully appreciate the gooey texture and warm flavors.
