Step-by-Step Instructions

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or aluminum foil.
Combine softened unsalted butter, minced garlic, and salt in a mixing bowl, mixing until smooth.
Place the thick slices of Texas Toast on the baking sheet and spread garlic butter on both sides of each slice.
Sprinkle a layer of mozzarella cheese followed by cheddar on top of each slice.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes, until cheese is melted and edges are golden.
For extra crispiness, broil for 1 to 2 minutes, watching closely to prevent burning.
Garnish with chopped fresh parsley and serve warm.
