(The Kìtchn recommends to stuff between the vertìcal slìces fìrst, then go back and fìll ìn the spaces between the horìzontal cuts ìt’s a bìt easìer thìs way! ìt also helps to have a helper who can hold the slìces apart whìle you stuff.)

8. Use a small spoon to stuff the garlìc slìces ìnto the bread between the bread slìces. Brush the ìnfused butter all over the bread.
