1
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2
Prepare the Garlic Butter
In a small saucepan, melt 1 stick of unsalted butter over low heat. Add 4 minced garlic cloves, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 2 tablespoons of chopped fresh parsley. Stir the mixture until the garlic is fragrant and just starting to turn golden, about 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
3
Slice the Baguette
Using a serrated knife, slice the French baguette in half lengthwise, making sure not to cut all the way through.

4
Brush with Olive Oil
Brush the cut sides of the baguette with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, ensuring even coverage.
5
Apply the Garlic Butter
Spread the prepared garlic butter mixture evenly on both cut sides of the baguette.
6
Add Cheese
Sprinkle 1 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese and 1 cup of grated Parmesan cheese generously over the garlic butter on both halves.

7
Bake the Bread
Place the prepared baguette halves on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and lightly golden.
8
Cool and Serve
Remove the cheesy garlic bread from the oven, let it cool for a few minutes, then slice and serve warm.
