Directions: 
Soak plank in cold water, at least one hour. Preheat grill to medium heat, about 400 degrees. In a small bowl combine, raspberries, slivered almonds, and fresh thyme, season with coarse ground black pepper. Drizzle with honey and gently mix to combine. Remove plank from water, place wheels, evenly spaced. Top each wheel with raspberry mixture. Place plank on grill for 20 to 25 minutes until each cheese is golden brown and slightly puffy, topping is hot, and almonds are slightly golden brown. Remove from grill, cool 1 to 2 minutes. Serve immediately with sliced baguettes and a few spoons and plenty of napkins. Serves 8 to 12 as a party appetizer
