Ingredients

Scale

Garlic Butter Spread

  • 2 tablespoons butter, softened
  • 1/2 tablespoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried parsley

Main Ingredients

  • 4 slices of bread
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella and cheddar cheese blend

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Garlic Butter: In a small bowl, thoroughly mix the softened butter, garlic powder, and dried parsley until well combined to create a flavorful spread.
  2. Butter the Bread: Evenly spread the garlic butter mixture on one side of each slice of bread, ensuring full coverage for maximum flavor.
  3. Assemble the Sandwiches: Place two slices of bread butter-side down onto a skillet or cutting board. Evenly distribute half of the cheese blend onto each slice.
  4. Complete the Sandwich: Top each with the remaining bread slices, butter-side up, to close the sandwiches and prepare them for cooking.
  5. Cook the Sandwiches: Heat a skillet over low heat. Place the sandwiches in the skillet and cook for 4 to 5 minutes on one side, allowing the bread to turn golden brown.
  6. Flip and Finish Cooking: Carefully flip the sandwiches and cook the other side for another 4 to 5 minutes until the cheese melts completely and the bread achieves a crispy texture.
  7. Serve Warm: Remove the grilled cheese sandwiches from the skillet, slice them as desired, and serve immediately while the cheese is hot and gooey.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the garlic butter.
  • Use a mixture of cheeses like mozzarella and cheddar for both meltiness and sharpness.
  • Make sure to cook on low heat to prevent burning while allowing the cheese to melt.
  • You can substitute dried parsley with fresh chopped parsley for a fresher taste.
  • Serve with tomato soup or a simple salad for a complete meal.
