Whipped Brie: In a food processor, blend the triple cream brie (rind removed) with the cream cheese until smooth. Divide the mixture into two bowls.

Prepare the Truffle: Shave the truffle into thin strips. Finely chop about ¼ of the shavings and mix them into one of the bowls of whipped brie.
oz black truffle
Make the Brie Cake: Spread the truffle whipped brie on the cut side of the bottom brie slice, then place the top half over it. Use a butter knife or a spreader to clean up around the edges. Refrigerate 30 minutes to set.
Finish and Serve: Spread the remaining plain whipped brie from the other bowl on top. Sprinkle the top with truffle salt and then arrange the rest of the black truffle slices into a flower. Chill for another 30 minutes uncovered. Serve on top of toasted baguettes slices and enjoy!
