Place all three slices of bread on a clean surface. Lightly butter one side of each slice using 1 tablespoon of butter, ensuring an even spread.
If desired, sprinkle a small pinch of garlic powder over the buttered sides for an extra layer of flavor.
Preheat a skillet or griddle over medium heat.
Place one slice of bread, butter-side down, onto the skillet. Layer it with one slice of cheddar cheese and one slice of mozzarella cheese.
Add the second slice of bread on top of the cheese. Buttered side should face up. Carefully press it down with a spatula to help it adhere.
Allow the sandwich to cook for 2-3 minutes or until the bottom slice of bread turns golden brown.
Flip the sandwich over using a spatula. Top the flipped side with the remaining slice of cheddar cheese and the remaining slice of mozzarella cheese.
Place the third slice of bread on top, buttered side facing up. Press down slightly to secure the layers.
Cook for another 2-3 minutes or until the second layer of bread turns golden brown. Flip the entire sandwich carefully one more time to allow the top slice to brown and the cheese to fully melt, about 2 more minutes.
Once the sandwich is golden and the cheese is oozing, remove it from the skillet and place it on a cutting board.
Let it rest for 1-2 minutes before slicing the sandwich diagonally into two halves.
Serve immediately and enjoy your indulgent Double Decker Grilled Cheese Sandwich!
