1/2 cup (4 oz) butter, melted
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 cup dry sherry wine
8 cups beef stock/broth
1 bay leaf
salt and pepper to taste

Gruyere cheese, shredded (best place to find this is Aldi's) | | Directions | 1. Slice onions thinly. Place them in the slow cooker. Add your melted butter and stir well so all onions are coated. Put this on low overnight, 10 - 12 hours.
2. Add the garlic. Stir sherry into onion mixture; scrape the bottom to dissolve the small bits of browned food.
3. Throw in bay leaf, salt/pepper and broth. Stir well. Cook on low for 8 - 10 hours or on High for 4 - 6 hours.
4. Preheat oven to 400ºF. Slice bread to 1/2" thick slices. Brush both sides lightly with olive oil. Arrange on a baking sheet and bake 6 - 8 minutes until golden brown at the edges.
5. Once bread is out, set oven to 'broil'.
6. Pour soup into oven safe bowls. Sprinkle the top with a bit of your cheese. Lay the bread on top and sprinkle the rest of the cheese on top. Broil for 2-3 minutes until cheese topping is lightly browned and bubbling. | | Notes | | |
