Simple Garlic Bread

A friend made this for our family a while back and I was delighted over how simple it was and yet how flavorful!  I'm warning you, though, you can't just eat one piece.  

Garlic Bread

1 loaf of Texas toast (or Italian bread)
1 c. softened butter
2-3 T. Hidden Valley Ranch dressing dry mix packet
2 t. garlic powder

Mix the last three ingredients together and spread on Texas toast.  Lay toast on baking sheet and broil.  Keep a close eye to make sure the toast doesn't burn.

Enjoy!
