Baked Brie Reinvented in a Cast-Iron Skillet - ATK

"When the cheese is warmed, it becomes rich and gooey and pairing it with sweet fruit brings out the savory notes in the cheese. For sweet and creamy flavor in every bite, ATK reengineered the traditional whole wheel of baked Brie by trimming off the rind (which doesn't melt that well) and slicing the cheese into cubes. This allowed the honey-apricot mixture to be evenly distributed throughout this deconstructed version of the dish, not just spooned on top. Baking the cheese in a cast-iron skillet holds on to heat, keeping the cheese in the ideal luscious, fluid state. Finish the dish with an extra drizzle of honey and some minced chives to reinforce the sweet-savory flavor profile. Be sure to use a firm, fairly unripe Brie for this recipe. Serve with crackers or Melba toast."
