Ingredients

  • 4 slices bread
  • 4 slices cheese (such as cheddar, mozzarella, or Swiss)
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter (at room temperature)

Steps

  1. 1

    Place a large non-stick skillet or griddle pan over medium heat.

  2. 2

    Lay out 4 slices of bread on a cutting board and place a slice of cheese on 2 of the slices. Place the remaining slices of bread on top to close the sandwiches.

  3. 3

    Spread a thin layer of butter on one side of each sandwich.

  4. 4

    Place the sandwiches, buttered side down, onto the preheated skillet or griddle pan. Spread butter to the topside of the sandwiches. Allow them to cook for 3-4 minutes, or until the bottom is golden brown and the cheese starts to melt.

  5. 5

    Carefully flip the sandwiches with a spatula and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until the other side is golden brown and the cheese is completely melted.

  6. 6

    Remove the sandwiches from the pan and let them cool for a minute or two before cutting them into halves and serving.
