---

1 crusty loaf preferably sourdough or Vienna, 2 cups shredded mozzarella (or other melting cheese), 2 cups Parmesan cheese, ⅔ cup Butter melted, 2 large cloves garlic minced, 2 tablespoons fresh basil minced, 2 tablespoons fresh parsley minced, 2 tablespoons fresh rosemary minced, 2 tablespoons salt, and 2 tablespoons pepper

Directions

Garlic Butter

1. Melt the butter with the garlic and salt added in a heatproof bowl in the microwave.
2. Then stir in the parsley rosemary and basil.

Bread and Cheese

1. Preheat your oven to 325°F.
2. Cut the bread on the bias (diagonally) into 1-inch slices. Then do so again at a criss-cross angle creating a pattern of 1-inch diamonds. But do not cut all the way through (as if slicing a loaf for garlic bread).
3. Using your fingers or a utensil pry open each crack and drizzle in a small amount of the butter and herb mix. Then stuff in pinches of mozzarella cheese throughout the loaf. Repeat with Parmesan and sprinkle some over the top as well. You don’t need to be super neat—no penalty for having some of the butter and cheeses drizzled over the crust!
4. Wrap with foil and bake for 20 minutes. To make your Stuffed Cheesy Garlic Bread extra crusty unwrap it for the last 5 minutes of baking. Serve and enjoy!
