Basil Cheese Pull-Apart Breadsticks

List of Ingredients
1 pound round loaf sourdough bread, unsliced
1/2 cup butter
2 tablespoons fresh basil, chopped
2 cloves garlic, finely minced
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
Recipe
Slice bread into 1-1/2 inch slices, cutting to bottom of loaf but not through it. Turn bread one quarter turn, then slice bread again into 1-1/2 inch slices, cutting to but not through bottom of loaf, forming breadsticks that are attached to the bottom crust. (The loaf should look like the popular onion flower appetizer.) Carefully place loaf on a sheet of heavy-duty foil. Melt butter, and stir in basil and garlic. Drizzle the butter mixture between breadsticks and over top of loaf, then sprinkle with cheese. Wrap securely with double-fold seal. Place bread on grill 4-6 inches from medium coals. Heat 15-25 minutes or until cheese is melted and bread is hot, turning and moving loaf frequently to prevent burning. To serve, pull apart breadsticks.
