Baked Garlic & Rosemary Fontina

This could possibly be the simplest recipe ever!  And it was so yummy, I can see this appetizer becoming a regular!  Recipe adapted from Smells Like Home


Ingredients

    1/2 lb italian fontina, cubed into 1-inch pieces
    3 cloves garlic, minced
    2 tsp fresh rosemary, chopped
    3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
    1/2 tsp salt
    1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper
    1/2 a french bread baguette
    olive oil to drizzle

Instructions
First I made the homemade crostini.  Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Slice a half of a french bread baguette, spread out evenly on a baking sheet and drizzle both sides of each slice with olive oil.  Bake for 5 minutes on each side.

Adjust top rack of the oven so that it sits about 5 inches under the broiler unit. Preheat broiler on low setting.  Spread cheese out in the bottom of a baking dish. Drizzle olive oil over the cheese. Sprinkle the garlic, rosemary, salt and pepper evenly over the cheese. Broil for 6 minutes or until the cheese is bubbly and melted through. Carefully remove the pan from the oven and set it on a heatproof surface - the pan will be hot! Serve immediately. Enjoy!
