French Bread |
|
1/2 c. |
|
unsalted butter, melted |
|
2 clove |

Preheat oven to 350°F. Cut 2 pieces of aluminum foil about one foot long (about 6” longer than the length of the bread).
In a small bowl, combine melted butter with garlic powder and salt. With serrated bread knife, slice bread lengthwise. Lay out bread on one of the sheets of foil. Using a pastry brush, a spoon, or your fingers, spread melted butter mixture on both cut sides of the bread. Sprinkle the cheese over one side of the bread.
Put the bread back together like a sandwich and wrap completely in the foil. Bake at 350°F for about 20 minutes, or until cheese is melted. Cut into slices and serve hot.
