Cheesy Bread

It seems like at every restuarant I visit there is one dish that I just HAVE to have while I'm there. At Black Angus (which we almost never go to...) it's the cheesy bread. It's garlicky, cheesy, crunchy, gooey, and heavenly. It's the one thing on their menu that I get really, really excited about. I've always known it wasn't just cheese and garlic, there was more to it than that and now, thanks to Pinterest and Simply Recipes, I have found a copycat recipe that will satisfy my craving for garlic, cheesy deliciousness. I didn't change a thing from the orginal recipe (which can be found here) I just made much smaller portions because I wasn't aiming to make 40 slices... however, after trying this, next time I might just make all 40!!


 Ingredients:

8 oz shredded Mozzarella cheese
1 lb shredded sharp cheddar cheese
1/2 to 1 cup chopped green onion (to taste)
1/2 cup mayonnaise
2 Tbsp sour cream (optional)
3-4 cloves garlic, minced
1 stick unsalted butter (1/2 cup, 4 ounces), softened to the point of being slightly melted
1 to 2 loaves of French or Italian bread, depending on the size of the loaves

Directions:

In a large bowl, mix together the cheeses and the green onion. Stir in the mayonnaise and sour cream. In a separate small bowl blend the butter and garlic until smooth. Add the butter mixture to the cheese mixture.

Preheat broiler. Slice loaf of bread in half horizontally, lay crust side down. Spread cheese mixture over the bread. Place under the broiler until nicely browned, about 3 to 5 minutes.

Remove from broiler and let sit for 5 minutes until cool enough to handle. Slice the bread with a bread knife. Serve.

Makes 30 to 40 slices.
