In a small bowl mix softened butter with garlic, and Italian seasoning. Spread evenly over bread.
Cover with foil and place in the oven for 15-20 minutes until the butter is melted and the bread is soft.
Sprinkle evenly with cheese. Place back in the oven for 5 minutes, or until cheese is melted. Turn on the broiler for 2-3 minutes for golden brown cheese.
