Cook Time: 10 minutes
Total Time: 15 minutes
Servings: 2 sandwiches
Ingredients
-
2 tablespoons butter, softened
-
1/2 tablespoon garlic powder
-
1/2 teaspoon dried parsley
-
4 slices of bread
-
1 cup shredded mozzarella and cheddar cheese blend
Instructions
-
In a small bowl, mix the softened butter, garlic powder, and dried parsley until well combined.
-
Spread the garlic butter evenly on one side of each slice of bread, covering the surface completely.
-
Place two slices of bread butter-side down on a board or skillet. Divide the shredded cheese evenly between the slices.
-
Top with the remaining bread slices, placing them butter-side up to form two sandwiches.
-
Heat a skillet over low heat. Cook the sandwiches for 4–5 minutes on the first side, until the bread is golden brown and crisp.
-
Carefully flip and cook the other side for another 4–5 minutes, until the cheese is fully melted and the bread is evenly golden.
-
Remove from heat, slice, and serve immediately while hot and melty.
Notes
-
Low heat is key for melting the cheese without burning the bread.
-
Spread garlic butter evenly for consistent crispness.
-
Serve immediately for the best texture.
