CROSTINI:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Melt butter over moderate heat. Let sit until milky solids sink to the bottom. Skim off golden melted butter from top.
Discard solids. Spread bread slices on a cookie sheet. Combine melted Butter and Garlic. Add Pepper to taste. Brush butter onto bread slices.
Bake for 10 minutes or until slightly crisp. Sprinkle baked slices with Parmesan cheese. Return to the oven for a minute so cheese can melt. Remove from oven; let cool.
