Then, a faultless blend of two cheese: mozzarella and parmesan, is sprinkled all over the top.

HOW TO MAKE THE BEST GARLIC BREAD

Now, I normally make this bread in single serve quantities using regular sourdough slices, only because its what we usually have on hand.

Spread the garlic butter mixture over both halves of bread, covering the entire surface right to the edges. Top with two types of cheeses, sprinkle with dried parsley and bake.

HOW TO MAKE GARLIC BREAD SPREAD

MIX softened butter with garlic, parsley and salt.

DO I NEED TO WRAP GARLIC BREAD IN FOIL?

For crispy bread on the outside and soft, tender bread on the inside, do not wrap in foil. However, if you like soft bread all over, you can wrap your bread in foil.

So much buttery goodness! ↘︎
