Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 slices per sandwich Sliced bread
- 2 slices per sandwich Cheddar cheese
- 1 slice per sandwich Mozzarella cheese
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 0.25 teaspoons Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoons (optional) Parsley, finely chopped
Instructions
Start by mixing the butter, garlic powder, and parsley in a small bowl. This will create a flavorful spread for the bread.
Lay out three slices of bread. Spread the butter mixture evenly on one side of each slice.
Preheat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat.
Place one slice of bread, buttered-side down, onto the skillet. Add one slice of cheddar cheese on top of the bread.
Place the second slice of bread on top of the cheddar cheese, buttered-side up. Add the mozzarella slice on top of the second slice of bread.
Place the third slice of bread on top of the mozzarella, buttered-side up.
Press down gently with a spatula to help the sandwich adhere together. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the bottom slice of bread is golden brown and crispy.
Carefully flip the sandwich using the spatula and cook the other side for another 2-3 minutes until golden brown and the cheese is fully melted.
Once done, remove the sandwich from the skillet and let it rest for a minute. This helps the cheese set slightly and prevents it from spilling out.
Slice the sandwich in half or quarters for easier eating and serve immediately. Enjoy the double-decker layers of cheesy goodness!
