A whole soft-rind cheese (brie or camembert), scored in a crosshatch and baked in a hot oven until melted inside, with honey over it the moment it comes out: for dipping bread.
💡Put things in the oven only once it's reached temperature, after the heating light has gone off: an oven that hasn't reached temperature changes baking times, and the bake burns outside or stays underbaked.
