I've built a few cutting boards and would like to create a recess on the underside for easy handling. Im just not sure how to do it and would appreciate any suggestions. Below is an image of the type of recess im trying to create.

Just a few weeks ago, being my first cutting board….
I used what I had on hand.
A cove bit with bearing in a hand held router.
With the board upside down….
Just made shallow passes, until I reached full depth.
Used a stop on each end/side, to control length of handle.
