Ingredients
  

1 large baguette or Italian loaf

1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened

4 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional)

1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

2 tablespoons fresh parsley, finely chopped

Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

    Prepare the Garlic Butter: In a mixing bowl, combine the softened butter, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, crushed red pepper flakes (if using), salt, and pepper. Mix well until thoroughly blended.

      Slice the Bread: Slice the baguette or Italian loaf in half lengthwise, creating two long pieces. Place the bread cut-side up on a baking sheet.

        Spread the Garlic Butter: Generously spread the garlic butter mixture evenly over the cut sides of both halves of the bread. Make sure to cover every inch for maximum flavor!

          Add Cheese: Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the buttered sides and then sprinkle the grated Parmesan generously on top.

            Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for about 15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly. For an extra crispy top, switch to broil for the last 2-3 minutes, keeping a close eye to prevent burning.

              Garnish and Serve: Remove the cheesy garlic bread from the oven and let it cool for a minute. Sprinkle the chopped fresh parsley over the top for a pop of color and freshness.

                Slice and Enjoy: Use a sharp knife to slice into individual pieces and serve warm. Perfect as an appetizer, snack, or side dish!
