Preheat your oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup.
Slice the loaf of bread in half lengthwise, creating two long halves. Place the halves cut side up on the prepared baking sheet.
In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the unsalted butter. Once melted, add the minced garlic and cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant (do not let it brown).
Remove the butter mixture from heat and stir in the chopped parsley, salt, and pepper. For extra flavor, optionally drizzle in a teaspoon of olive oil.
Using a spoon or a pastry brush, evenly spread the garlic butter mixture across both halves of the bread.
Sprinkle the grated mozzarella cheese evenly over the bread halves, followed by the grated Parmesan cheese.
Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 10-12 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly. For a golden, crisp top, switch to the broiler setting for the last 1-2 minutes, keeping a close eye to prevent burning.
Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool slightly. Slice into pieces for serving and enjoy warm!
