In a soup pot, heat the olive oil. When the oil is hot, add the onions, garlic cloves, and bay leaves. Season with salt and pepper. Saute the onion mixture until the onions are caramelized, about 7 minutes. Stir in the stock, minced garlic, basil, and thyme. Bring the liquid up to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and simmer for 40 minutes. Turn the heat up and whisk in the bread and cream. Continue whisking until the bread has dissolved into the soup, about 10 minutes. With a hand-held blender, puree the soup until smooth. Whisk in the Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese. Season with salt and pepper.
Ladle the soup into a shallow bowl. Place the Parmesan Cheese Toast Points around the bowl. Garnish with parsley.
