  • Add in butter and continue kneading for 10-12 minutes in medium speed.
  • Once it's done, shape into a ball and let it rise in a bowl, covered in a warm place for about 1 hour or till doubled in size.
  • When it's ready, punch and de-gas the dough, divide into 4 and shape to rough balls and set aside, covered and let it rest for 10 minutes.
  • When ready, flatten the dough and fold into a ball. Shape by tightening the dough into a smooth surface. Set on a baking tray, covered and let it proof for 45 minutes or till double in size.
  • 15 minutes before ready, preheat oven to 175C. Bake bread at 175C for 20 minutes. Remove when it's baked and let it cool. You may leave the bread overnight and use it for the garlic bread, or when the bread has cooled down.

Make cream cheese filling

  • Use a spatula and beat cream cheese till it's lump free. Add in cream, mix till its well combined. Add some salt and pepper. Fill into a piping bag.

Make garlic butter sauce

  • Melt butter in a bowl or pan. Pour into a bowl big enough to dip the bread in later.
  • Mix in minced garlic, condensed milk, egg, honey and dried parsley. It will come into a homogeneous mixture.

Assembly

  • Preheat oven to 165 c.
  • Slice the bread into 6 sections but leave the bottom part of the bread intact, don't cut all the way through.
  • Pipe in the cream cheese filling in the cavity.
  • Dip the bread into the garlic butter sauce, make sure it's covered inside the bread as well.
  • The garlic butter sauce is enough for 4 so make sure you use all of it.
  • Bake in the oven for 10 minutes or till golden brown. Serve warm.
