Ingredients
- 8 medium garlic cloves skins left on
- 6 tbsp unsalted butter softened
- 2 tbsp Parmesan cheese grated
- 1/2 tsp salt
- black pepper
- 2 demi baguettes
- 6 string cheeses
- 16 black olive slices
Instructions
- Adjust oven rack to lower-third position and heat to 500 degrees.
- Toast garlic cloves in a small skillet over medium heat, shaking pan occasionally, until fragrant and color of cloves deepens, about 8 minutes.
- When garlic cloves are cool enough to handle, skin and mince or press cloves through a garlic press. Using a dinner fork, mash garlic, softened butter, Parmesan cheese, salt, and pinch of pepper in a bowl until thoroughly combined.
- Cut each of the small baguette slices in half lengthwise and then again in half crosswise so you have eight halves. Spread the cut side of each of the eight halves with the prepared garlic butter.
- Thinly peel apart the string cheeses. Place two slices of black olives on each half for eyes and then place the pieces of string cheese in layers on top of the bread halves to look like mummies.
- Transfer the halves, buttered and cheese side up, onto a baking sheet. Bake at 500 degrees for 6 - 8 minutes, until the cheese is melted and just beginning to brown. Serve immediately.
