Cheesy Garlic Bread In A Pan

Ingredients:

• ½ cup salted butter room temperature (you can use unsalted and add salt)
• 2 cloves garlic very finely chopped about 1 ½ teaspoons fresh or ½ teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 tablespoon fresh parsley finely chopped
• 1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 loaf French bread
• 2 cups mozzarella cheese shredded
• 1 cup cheddar cheese shredded

Instructions:

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
2. In a medium bowl, add butter, garlic, parsley, and Parmesan cheese.
3. Beat ingredients with an electric mixer on medium speed until combined and creamy. Taste and adjust to your preferences as desired.
4. Slice french bread in half crosswise and place on parchment lined baking sheet with the cut side up. Press halved loaves down with a cutting board or another sheet pan (this helps to prevent the edges from curling too much).
5. Spread butter evenly on the cut sides. Top each slice with shredded cheese.
6. Bake at 375 degrees F for 8-10 minutes until desired crispness is reached, broiling to brown further if desired.
7. Garnish with finely chopped parsley, then slice into strips. Serve hot.
