Preheat oven to 425°F. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high. Gather all ingredients.

Push tomatoes to outer edges of dish and place garlic and herb cheese in center of dish. Drizzle cheese with remaining 1 tablespoon oil.

Remove baking dish from oven and add 1/4 cup of the pasta water; stir until creamy. Add pasta and stir until well coated. Stir in Parmesan, remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt, and up to 1/2 cup more pasta water, 2 tablespoons at a time, to reach desired consistency. Garnish with basil and black pepper and serve immediately.
