Ingredients

Cooking Instructions

1

Preheat the Grill: Start by preheating your grill or grill pan to high heat. While it's heating, gently rub the camembert with a little olive oil and sprinkle with salt.

2

Grill the Camembert: Place the camembert on the grill. Grill for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until the cheese feels warm and gooey inside. Flip it carefully to avoid breaking it! Once done, remove it from the grill and set it aside.

3

Cook the Cherries: In a small skillet over medium-high heat, combine the butter, thyme, cherries, and bourbon (if you're using it). Stir occasionally until the cherries start to release their juices-this should take about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat.

4

Serve and Enjoy: To assemble, place the warm camembert on a serving plate. Top it generously with the warm cherry mixture and drizzle with honey. Serve alongside toasted bread or crackers for a delightful treat!

Chef's Note

If you prefer, you can also bake the camembert in the oven at 430°F (220°C) for 10-15 minutes until it's perfectly melty.

Indulge in this mouthwatering combination, and watch your guests fall in love with every bite. Enjoy!
