Garlic And Cheese Pull apart Bread

Garlic bread is the best! It’s the one thing I know my little one will eat when he’s going through one of his phases. And apparently the more garlic the better. He hopes to scare the vampires away with his stinky garlic breath! This cheese and garlic pull apart bread is a great combination of garlic bread and cheese bread.
