Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

Pour 1/3 cup of chopped pecans into a baking dish and toast in the oven for a few minutes.

Place the brie cheese into a 9-inch baking dish.

In a bowl, mix together 1/2 cup of orange marmalade and 2 tablespoons of dark brown sugar.

Spoon the praline topping mixture on top of the brie cheese.

Sprinkle the toasted pecans on top of the brie and praline mixture.

Bake in the preheated oven for about 15 minutes until warm and gooey.

Remove the brie from the oven and use two spatulas to lift it out of the baking dish onto a serving tray.

Surround the brie with wheat crackers and garnish with fresh parsley.
