This wasn't exactly the garlic bread I was looking for, but it was still tasty. In all fairness, I did make some changes based on other reviews. First, I used 4 cloves of fresh garlic (finely chopped) rather than garlic powder. It may be a bit much garlic if you're not a big fan, but my husband's motto is, "There's no such thing as too much garlic." I also used about 1/4 cup of sweetened condensed milk in place of the milk powder. Because it was sweetened, I left out the sugar. I made the dough in the bread machine and let it rise for an hour, then baked for 40 minutes at 300 degrees and another 10 minutes at 350 (to help brown the crust). I brushed the top with butter halfway through. The timing turned out to be perfect, and the bread has a good flavor, but I'm a little disappointed with the texture. I was expecting a crusty loaf, and while the crust was perfect, the texture inside was more spongy. I also thought it needed a little more salt, although that may also be due to the sweetened condensed milk. If you're looking for a moist soft bread, I think this is a good recipe.
