Step-by-Step Instructions

Prep Bread

Preheat oven to 375°F. Place bread on cutting board. Cut in criss-cross pattern, make deep cuts both ways without cutting through the bottom. You should get small pull-apart cubes still attached.

Make Filling

In medium bowl, mix softened cream cheese, sour cream, garlic, garlic powder, onion powder, salt and pepper until smooth. Fold in chopped spinach, artichokes, 3/4 cup mozzarella and Parmesan.

Stuff the Bread

Place bread on foil-lined baking sheet. Gently open the cuts and stuff spinach artichoke mixture deep into all crevices with spoon or small spatula. Brush outside with olive oil.

Add Cheese on Top

Sprinkle remaining 1/4 cup mozzarella over top, letting it get into cracks.

Bake

Wrap loosely in foil and bake for 15 minutes. Uncover and bake 10-12 minutes more until cheese is melted, bubbly and golden brown.

Serve

Let cool 5 minutes. Serve warm on plate. Pull apart pieces and enjoy cheesy goodness.
