I am forever obsessed with Garlic Cheese Toast. It is the number one option to soak up rich and savory juices from all kinds of sauces! Super simple yet guarantees the best garlic cheese toast. All you need is to combine cheddar cheese, Monterey cheese, and Parmesan cheese with butter, and garlic. Slather this on thick white bread and bake until golden perfection. For this recipe, you are welcome to use any combination of cheese, but make sure to use one cheese with a bold flavor. For the best result, I always use Parmesan cheese. Enjoy this garlic cheese toast with steaks or chicken for a fancy dinner perfect for everybody!
Ingredients
2 cloves garlic, minced
½ c. + 2 tbsp salted butter, softened, divided
½ c. cheddar cheese, shredded
¼ c. Parmesan cheese, shredded
¼ c. Monterey jack cheese
10 slices of thick white bread slightly dry
salt & pepper to taste
How to make Garlic Cheese Toast
Step 1: Prepare the oven. Preheat it to 375 degrees F.
Step 2: Spread 2 tbsp butter on one side of the bread. On a baking sheet, place the bread, and butter side down.
Step 3: In a food processor, blend the rest of the butter, garlic, and cheeses until well mixed. On the unbuttered side of the bread, spread the mixture.
Step 4: Bake in the middle rack of the preheated oven for about 8 to 10 minutes or until the cheese has melted. You can broil for 30 to 60 seconds if desired to brown the cheese.
Notes:
You can combine the ingredients using a hand mixer if you do not have a food processor.
For this recipe, you can use any combination of cheese. Just make sure that one of the cheeses has a bold flavor. For this my best option of Parmesan cheese.
You can make a loaf of cheesy bread, just spread the mixture over French bread.
