Ingredients
– 2 cups all-purpose flour
– 1 teaspoon salt
– 1 teaspoon baking powder
– 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
– 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
– 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
– 1 (14 oz) can artichoke hearts, drained and chopped
– 2 cups fresh spinach, chopped
– 1 (8 oz) package cream cheese, softened
– 1/4 cup mayonnaise
– 2 cloves garlic, minced
– 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 375°F. Grease a 9×13 inch baking dish.
2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, and baking powder. Cut in the butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
3. In a separate bowl, combine the mozzarella, Parmesan, artichokes, and spinach.
4. In another bowl, beat the cream cheese, mayonnaise, garlic, and black pepper until smooth.
5. Roll the dough out into a large rectangle, about 1/4 inch thick. Spread the cream cheese mixture over the dough, then top with the artichoke-spinach mixture.
6. Cut the dough into 12 equal squares. Stack the squares and place them vertically in the prepared baking dish.
7. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
8. Let cool for 5 minutes before serving.
