Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces Bread slices
- 3 tablespoons Cream cheese
- 1 tablespoon Butter
- 1 pinch Salt (optional, for taste)
- 1 teaspoon Honey or jam (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Take two slices of bread and lay them flat on a clean surface.
Spread 1.5 tablespoons of cream cheese evenly onto one side of each bread slice.
If desired, sprinkle a small pinch of salt on the cream cheese to enhance the flavor.
Place the two slices together with the cream cheese sides facing each other, forming a sandwich.
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium-low heat.
Add 1 tablespoon of butter to the skillet and let it melt, coating the pan evenly.
Place the sandwich in the skillet and cook for about 2-3 minutes on one side, pressing gently with a spatula to ensure even browning.
Flip the sandwich carefully and cook the other side for another 2-3 minutes, until both sides are golden brown and crispy.
Remove the sandwich from the skillet and let it cool for 1-2 minutes.
Optional: Drizzle honey or spread a thin layer of jam on top for an extra touch of sweetness.
Slice the sandwich in half, serve warm, and enjoy!
