Recipe Yield

This recipe yields 1 loaf of cheesy garlic bread, perfect for sharing with friends or family at a gathering.

Prep Time:

15 minutes

Cook Time:

8 to 10 minutes (refrigerated)
20 to 25 minutes (frozen)

Total Time:

15 minutes (excluding refrigeration or freezing time)

Instructions

  1. Mix the Cheesy Garlic Spread:
    In a medium-sized bowl, combine 1 ¼ cup of mayonnaise, 1 cup of grated sharp cheddar cheese, 1 finely chopped green onion (about ½ cup), and 3 minced garlic cloves. Stir everything together until well-combined to create your cheesy, garlicky spread.

  2. Prepare the Bread:
    Slice your loaf of bread (whether it’s French, sourdough, or Italian) horizontally into two halves. Spread the cheesy garlic mixture generously over both halves, making sure to cover every inch of the bread for maximum flavor.

  3. Add the Finishing Touches:
    After spreading the cheese mixture, sprinkle each half with a light dusting of paprika and a few pinches of freshly chopped parsley for a touch of color and added flavor.

  4. Reassemble the Loaf:
    Place the two halves back together to form the original loaf shape. Wrap the entire loaf tightly in aluminum foil.

  5. Chill or Freeze:
    At this point, you can refrigerate the wrapped loaf for at least 2 hours if you’re planning to bake it later, or freeze it for up to a month for a make-ahead option. The chilling allows the flavors to meld together beautifully.

  6. Bake and Serve:
    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). If your loaf has been refrigerated, bake for 8 to 10 minutes until the cheese is melted and the bread is hot. If frozen, bake for 20 to 25 minutes. Unwrap and serve hot for maximum gooey, cheesy goodness!

Tips for Success:

  • Bread choice: While French baguette or Italian loaf works wonderfully, you could also use sourdough for a heartier base that adds its own tangy flavor.
  • Cheese variety: While sharp cheddar gives a great bold taste, feel free to mix it up by adding some mozzarella for extra stretch or Parmesan for a nutty edge.
  • Garlic lovers: If you’re a true garlic enthusiast, add more garlic or even a touch of garlic powder to amplify that garlicky kick.
  • Freezing instructions: To freeze, make sure the bread is completely wrapped in foil and place it in a freezer-safe bag. When ready to bake, you don’t need to thaw it—just extend the baking time as mentioned above.

Perfect Pairings

This cheesy garlic bread pairs perfectly with Italian-style dishes, soups, and stews, or even as a party appetizer. Consider serving it with a classic Tomato Basil Soup or alongside Spaghetti Bolognese for a truly indulgent meal.

Storage

  • Refrigerate: After baking, store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for 5–7 minutes.
  • Freeze: Unbaked bread can be frozen for up to 1 month. If you prefer to freeze baked bread, let it cool completely before wrapping it in foil and placing it in the freezer.

This Cheesy Garlic Cardiac Arrest Bread is everything you want in a comfort food recipe—oozing with cheese, packed with garlic, and so easy to make that you’ll be tempted to whip it up for every occasion. Don’t forget to share this recipe with fellow cheese lovers!
