Party Pizazz Cheesy Garlic Bread Spread

We had some friends over for dinner a few nights ago. I was serving French bread with dinner, but I didn’t really want to serve plain French bread I wanted it to be something that would stand out and something that would be noticed and be delicious.

I found this recipe while searching the web. I had everything I needed on hand and in just a matter of no time it was ready and baking in the oven. Oh it’s so delicious. It got the reaction I wanted that is for sure. My guests were in love with it and begged for the recipe. I thought that was pretty cool I had no idea I would be print my guest recipes before they left that night.

Fair warning this recipe makes A LOT! Listed below is the half recipe and it still made a ton of spread. I am excited to have extra, but I can easily see halving this recipe again.

Ingredients:

4 oz. shredded Mozzarella cheese
8 oz. shredded sharp cheddar cheese
1/4 green onion chopped fine
1/2 cup mayonnaise
2 Tbsp. sour cream (optional)
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 stick unsalted butter, softened to the point of being slightly melted
1 loaf of French bread

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.
