If you love the flavor of fresh garlic but not the actual pieces you can use a micro plane to grate the garlic, just be sure to be careful of your fingers and grate it directly over the saucepan. Melt the cup of butter on low heat and add all your garlic.

Keep on low until the garlic softens. It will only take about 5 minutes, maybe less. Turn off the heat.

If you have kids who may not like the pieces of garlic, spoon just the butter on half and save the garlic for those of us who really enjoy it. Put the bread back in the oven and broil for 2 min. slice and serve.
