I'm not sure what you mean by soft garlic, but here's a good one when the colds and flues are going around. It does not have the bite, but is soft with a nutty taste.
Take the entire head (all the cloves) and micro wave it in beef stock or beef base (bullion will work but very salty) until soft. Just squeeze the individual cloves and eat. It's best if you trim the top (pointy end) so you can squeeze the garlic out. I use a ramekin with a lid on it . The longer you cook the softer and milder it gets. I really don't remember how long to cook just nuke it until the broth is near boiling and let it sit a bit. The only problem will be boiling over the stock and a messy microwave if you do.
I mentioned the colds/viruses because garlic and onions have natural " viralcides" in them.

This one is pretty good. Worth the trouble
* 2 1/2 cups bread flour
* 3 teaspoons instant yeast
* 1 tablespoon white sugar
* 1/2 teaspoon salt
* 3/4 teaspoon Italian seasoning
* 1 tablespoon minced garlic
* 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
* 1 tablespoon butter, softened
* 1/4 cup hot water
* 1/2 cup milk
* 1 egg
* 1/4 cup butter, melted
* 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1. Fit your food processor with a steel blade. Place the bread flour, yeast, sugar, salt, Italian seasoning, garlic, 1/4 cup grated Parmesan and softened butter in the processor; pulse to blend. Stir together hot water, milk and egg. Start the processor and slowly pour in the milk mixture into the feed tube until a ball forms around the blade. Run for 30 seconds to knead. Remove dough from processor and knead briefly by hand. Lightly oil a large bowl, place the dough in the bowl and turn to coat with oil. Cover with a damp cloth and let rise in a warm place until doubled in volume, about 1 hour.
2. Deflate the dough, and turn it out onto a lightly floured surface. Roll the dough into a 10x12 inch rectangle. Use a knife or pizza cutter to slice the dough lengthwise into ten strips, and then cut these strips in half. Brush tops of strips with 2 tablespoons melted butter, and sprinkle with 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese. Cover, and let rise until nearly double, about 30 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
3. Bake in preheated oven for 18 to 23 minutes, or until golden brown. Turn broiler on, and brush breadsticks with remaining melted butter and Parmesan cheese. Broil just until the cheese starts to turn light brown, about 2 to 3 minutes. Serve warm.
