1 c. soft butter
1/4 c. chopped or dried parsley
1/4 c. grated Parmesan cheese
1 clove garlic, crushed
2 tsp. dried marjoram leaves
1/2 tsp. pepper
2 loaves French or Italian bread, about 14 inches long

In small bowl combine butter, parsley, Parmesan cheese, garlic, marjoram and pepper until well blended. Cut each loaf in half lengthwise. Spread cut sides with garlic butter. Cut each half on the diagonal, not quite all the way through, into 1-inch slices.

Broil bread, buttered side up, 4 inches from heat, about 8 minutes or until lightly toasted. Cut or pull apart. Makes 3 dozen slices.
