Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a small baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil. Unwrap cheese, and place on prepared baking sheet. (Do not trim rind from cheese.) Bake until cheese is soft to the touch, 12 to 15 minutes. Remove from oven; cool on baking sheet 5 minutes.
• Place honey, salt, and five spice powder in a small saucepan. Heat over medium-low until honey "melts," about 2 minutes. Stir in pecans and cherries; cook until warmed, about 2 minutes.
• Carefully transfer cheese round to a platter; top with pecan mixture. Serve warm with apples, crackers, and/or toasted baguette slices.
