Ingredients
Scale
Garlic Butter Mixture
- 2 tablespoons butter, softened
- 1/2 tablespoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon dried parsley
Sandwich
- 4 slices of bread
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella and cheddar cheese blend
Instructions
- Prepare Garlic Butter: In a small bowl, mix softened butter, garlic powder, and dried parsley until well combined. This mixture will serve as the flavorful spread for the bread.
- Spread Butter on Bread: Evenly spread the garlic butter mixture on one side of each slice of bread, ensuring full coverage for maximum flavor and crispiness.
- Assemble Sandwiches: Place two slices of bread butter-side down on a skillet or cutting board. Sprinkle half of the cheese blend onto each slice. Then cover with the remaining bread slices, butter-side up.
- Cook First Side: Heat a skillet over low heat and place the sandwiches inside. Cook for 4 to 5 minutes until the bottom slices are golden brown and the cheese begins to melt.
- Flip and Cook Second Side: Carefully flip the sandwiches and cook for another 4 to 5 minutes, until the second side is crisp and the cheese is fully melted and gooey.
- Serve: Remove the sandwiches from the skillet, slice them if desired, and serve immediately while hot for the best gooey texture and flavor.
Notes
- Use low heat to ensure the cheese melts thoroughly without burning the bread.
- Softened butter is easier to spread evenly on the bread slices.
- Pairs perfectly with tomato soup for a classic and comforting meal.
- Customize by adding your favorite cheese or mix-ins like sliced tomatoes or jalapeños for added flavor and texture.
