  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 and 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
  2. Slice the French or Italian bread loaf in half horizontally, creating two long halves.

  4. Spread the garlic butter mixture evenly over the cut sides of the bread halves, making sure to cover the entire surface.
  5. Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over one of the garlic buttered bread halves.
  6. Place the other garlic buttered bread half on top of the cheese, creating a sandwich.
  7. Wrap the stuffed garlic bread loaf tightly in aluminum foil, sealing the edges.
  8. Place the wrapped garlic bread loaf on the prepared baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the bread is heated through and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  9. Remove the stuffed garlic bread from the oven and carefully unwrap the foil.
  10. Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the top of the garlic bread loaf.
  11. Return the uncovered garlic bread loaf to the oven and bake for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and crispy.
  12. Once baked, remove the stuffed garlic bread from the oven and let it cool slightly before slicing.
