  • 1(8 ounce) containergarlic and herb cream cheese, softened

  • cupgrated Parmesan cheese

  • 2 ½cupsshredded mozzarella cheese, divided

  • 1(14 ounce) jarpizza sauce

  • 10mini pepperoni slices, or to taste

  • 2tablespoonssliced black olives, or to taste

  • 2teaspoonschopped fresh parsley or basil (Optional)

Cooking Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

  2. Slice bread in half lengthwise and scoop out some of the center of the loaf and reserve for another use such as making breadcrumbs. Set loaf halves aside.

  3. Combine herbed cream cheese, Parmesan cheese, and 1 cup mozzarella cheese in a bowl and stir until well combined. Divide cheese mixture between the two bread halves and spread in an even layer. Top evenly with cooked sausage. Divide sauce among each half, lightly spreading it to cover the sausage. Top with mini pepperoni, olives, and remaining cheese.

  4. Wrap each loaf halve completely in foil, keeping the top slightly loose so it doesn’t stick to the cheese.

  5. Bake in the preheated oven until the cheeses are gooey and melted and the bread is golden and toasted, 25 to 30 minutes. Remove from the foil and let stand 5 minutes. Sprinkle with fresh parsley or basil and cut loaves in 2 inch thick slices.
