Ingredients

• 1 loaf French baguette
• 4 ounces Blue cheese
• 4 ounces Cream cheese
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 2 cloves Garlic
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
• 0.25 teaspoons Sea salt
• 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Slice the French baguette in half lengthwise and place both halves cut-side up on a baking sheet.

Step 3

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the blue cheese, cream cheese, and unsalted butter. Use a fork to mash and blend them until the mixture is smooth and creamy.

Step 4

Finely mince the garlic and fresh parsley, then add them to the cheese mixture along with the sea salt and black pepper. Stir until well incorporated.

Step 5

Spread a generous layer of the blue cheese mixture evenly onto each half of the baguette.

Step 6

Bake the baguette halves in the preheated oven for 10 minutes, or until the cheese topping is melted and bubbly.

Step 7

For extra crispness, switch the oven to broil and let the bread brown lightly for 1-2 minutes. Watch closely to prevent burning.

Step 8

Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Slice into pieces and serve warm.
