Focaccia Flat Bread Homemade (Bread Machine)

Vseward (Chef~V)'s Note:

An Italian flatbread brushed with olive oil and flavored with grated Parmesan cheese, galic salt and grated Italian Seasoning makes this bread heavenly. A good friend of mine brought this over for Sunday Night football. We cut it into squares and topped with Prosciutto Panino rolled in Mozzarella cheese and toasted under the broiler for 5 min.... oh my, this is dangerously good! It is so easy to make. Can't wait to have this with a bowl of soup or top with Pizza topping, or to just dip in garlic olive oil. This comes from a bread machine cookbook with instructions to layer ingredients liquid first. Yummers! :) Family Favorite! (Cooking time does not include dough cycle or rising)
