Instructions

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper
Lay out the frozen garlic bread sticks on the prepared baking sheet and let them thaw at room temperature for about 10-15 minutes
In a medium bowl, combine the softened cream cheese and mayonnaise. Mix until smooth, then fold in the shrimp, crab meat, mozzarella, parsley, garlic, onion powder, black pepper, and red pepper flakes
Make a slit down the center of each thawed garlic bread stick to create a pocket. Fill each pocket with a generous amount of the shrimp and crab filling
Gently press the edges together to seal and roll into a somewhat spherical shape. Place seam-side down on the baking sheet
Brush the tops with melted butter and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Bake for 15-20 minutes until golden brown and crispy
