1 unsliced loaf sourdough bread, round loaf
8 -12 ounces cheddar cheese, thinly sliced

Using a sharp bread knife, cut the bread into about 1 inch slices from side to side going in both directions, repeating until entire loaf is cut. Do not cut through the bottom crust. It should look something like an onion mum.
Place slices of cheese inbetween slits. Sprinkle bacon bits on bread, making sure to tuck most between cuts.
Mix together butter and dry Ranch dressing mix. Pour over bread. If desired, dust with a couple of twists of freshly ground pepper.
Wrap in foil the entire loaf in foil, folding to seal. Place on a baking sheet; bake for 15 minutes. Unwrap. Bake for an additional 10 minutes or until cheese is melted.
