It was always a hit, and I remember her taking extra time to make sure the herbs were perfectly blended and the bread was toasted to perfection.

Variations
Variations: For a cheesy garlic bread, add 1/2 cup of grated Parmesan cheese to the butter mixture. You can also try adding different herbs and spices to the mix, such as rosemary or red pepper flakes.
Tips: Make sure to use softened butter so it blends easily into the herbs and spices. You can also use a food processor to blend the butter and herbs together for a smoother texture. For extra flavor, toast the bread in the oven before adding the garlic mixture.
