Ingredients
1/2 c. butter, softened

1 head roasted garlic
1 tsp Maldon sea salt
1 tbsp parsley, coarsely chopped
How to make Cheesy Garlic Bread Spread
Step 1: Prepare the oven. Preheat it to 400 degrees F.
Step 2: Place the butter and cream cheese in a stand mixer and blend.
Step 3: To the butter-cream cheese mixture, add the shredded cheese, roasted garlic, and parsley.
Step 4: Onto each piece of bread, slather the mixture. On a rimmed baking sheet, place the bread. Bake in the preheated oven for about 10 to 15 minutes or until the cheese is bubbly and has melted.
Step 5: Remove from the oven when done, and sprinkle the bread with flaky salt. Into cubes or bread sticks, slice the bread.
Notes:
You can substitute roasted garlic with 1 tsp garlic powder.
For crunchy bread, I recommend pre-toasting the bread in the oven for about 3 to 4 minutes. After the bread has been browned, slather it with the cheese spread.
