Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Cut off the top of the boule and reserve. Using a small, sharp knife, cut around the inside of the bread (being careful not to cut through the sides) and scoop out the center. Tear 1 loosely packed cup of the bread's innards into 1-inch pieces, then discard or set aside the rest for another use.
- In a small bowl, mix together 6 tablespoons softened butter, 3 cloves garlic, 1 tablespoon parsley, the red pepper flakes, if using, and ¼ teaspoon salt.
- Arrange the bread bowl, top of the boule, and the torn bread on a baking sheet. Spread the compound butter over the inside of the top of the boule and all over the inside of the bread bowl.
- Bake for 12-14 minutes, until the bread bowl is golden brown around the edges and the torn bread is dry and beginning to brown.
- Transfer the torn, toasted bread to a food processor and process into coarse crumbs. You should have about ½ cup of bread crumbs.
- In a medium pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat until shimmering. Add the bread crumbs and toast, stirring occasionally, until golden brown, 3-4 minutes.
- Transfer the toasted bread crumbs to a medium bowl and add 1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese, 1 tablespoon parsley, and ¼ teaspoon kosher salt. Stir to combine.
- Wipe out the pot, then return to the stove over medium heat and add the remaining 3 tablespoons butter. When the butter is melted and bubbling, add the remaining 3 cloves garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes, until fragrant.
- Add the heavy cream and cook until simmering and reduced slightly, stirring occasionally to prevent burning, 4-5 minutes. Add the remaining ½ cup Parmesan and the mozzarella cheese and stir until the cheese is fully melted and creamy and the sauce has thickened, 5-6 minutes. Season with the remaining teaspoon of salt and the pepper.
- Fold in the cooked elbow macaroni until well coated.
- Set the bread bowl on a clean baking sheet. Transfer the macaroni to the bread bowl and top with the bread crumbs.
- Bake for 5 minutes, until warmed through and set.
- Top with the remaining tablespoon of parsley and serve immediately with the toasted top of the boule.
- Enjoy!

MACARONI AND CHEESE WITH CRUNCHY GARLIC BREAD CUBES
I created this creamy and flavorful baked macaroni and cheese after being disappointed with so many others I have tried. I especially like the garlic bread topping! The leftovers microwave nicely too - the macaroni and cheese stays creamy - and though the garlic bread topping softens, it stays flavorful!

MACARONI AND CHEESE WITH GARLIC BREADCRUMBS, PLAIN AND CHIPOTLE
I make this mac and cheese for large gatherings because it can be made 2 days in advance. Everyone loves it. I usually make half plain for the kids, and half with chipotles for the adults. Any tubular pasta will work and I often 'clean out the fridge' and add any other cheeses that I may have on hand.
