Ingredients
- 2 slices of your favorite bread (sourdough or white work well)
- 2 tablespoons softened butter
- 2–3 slices of good-quality cheese (cheddar, American, Swiss, or a mix)
- Optional: 1 tablespoon mayonnaise (for extra golden crisp)
- Optional add-ins: tomato slices, cooked bacon, or caramelized onions
Instructions
- Prep the bread: Spread the softened butter on one side of each bread slice. If you like, spread a thin layer of mayo on the outside instead of butter for extra crispiness.
- Assemble: Place cheese slices between the bread, keeping the buttered sides facing out. Add any extras like tomato or bacon, if desired.
- Grill: Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium-low heat. Place the sandwich in the skillet and cook until golden brown, about 3–4 minutes per side. Press gently with a spatula for even toasting.
- Finish: Once both sides are crispy and the cheese is melted, remove from the pan. Let it rest for a minute, then slice in half and enjoy hot!
