Most Delicious Garlic Cheese Bread

GinnyP's Note:

This recipe is not going to help me keep my girlish figure, but it is soooo delicious! You can adjust the ingredient amounts to your liking and make it your own. I've always wondered why my garlic cheese bread at home never tasted quite as good as it does at a restaurant. I think it's the mayonnaise and the freshly minced garlic.

This was great. I substituted mozzarella for the parmesan and omitted the parsley because I don't like grass on my bread. The family very much enjoyed it. Thank you

Really, really liked this! We made quite a few adjustments though: maybe, ahem, 10 cloves of garlic (we really like garlic, you see...), probably less mayonnaise than called for (all that I had!), omitted the salt, added some olive oil to the mix itself, and spread this on top of 24 baguette slices so there was probably less per slice than intended - but this was still oh so good!! Thank you GinnyP!

This topping looked SO good we tried it on Pork Chops last night. And they turned out GREAT!. We had 5 thin sliced pork chops, so I cut the recipe down a bit in quantity. I broiled them on both sides and then slathered the mixture on and broiled it till it was brown and bubbly. SO GOOD! We mixed a little cut up fresh spinach with the mixture and it really added something!
