Ingredients:
1 loaf of Texas toast (thick-cut white bread)
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
3 cloves garlic, minced (or 1 tablespoon garlic powder)
1 teaspoon dried parsley
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Optional: Crushed red pepper flakes for a kick
Instructions:
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with cooking spray.
Prepare the garlic butter spread: In a small bowl, mix together the softened butter, minced garlic (or garlic powder), parsley, salt, and pepper. Stir until the mixture is smooth and evenly combined.
Assemble the toast: Lay the slices of Texas toast on the prepared baking sheet. Spread a generous amount of the garlic butter mixture on each slice of bread, covering it completely.
Add the cheese: Sprinkle shredded mozzarella and grated Parmesan cheese evenly on top of each slice of toast.
Bake: Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly and slightly browned. For an extra crispy top, you can broil the toast for an additional 1-2 minutes at the end.
Serve: Once baked, remove the toast from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Slice and serve hot for the perfect cheesy garlic experience.
