Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons Cream cheese
- 1 cup Cheddar cheese (shredded)
- 4 White or whole-grain bread slices
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter (softened)
- 0.5 teaspoons Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Parsley (optional, finely chopped)
Instructions
In a small mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, garlic powder, and optional parsley. Mix well until smooth and spreadable.
Lay out the bread slices and evenly divide the cream cheese mixture between two slices of bread. Spread the mixture to cover the entire surface, then top each with another slice of bread to form sandwiches.
Spread a thin, even layer of the softened butter on the outside of each sandwich (both top and bottom sides).
Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat.
Place the sandwiches in the preheated skillet. Cook for 3-4 minutes on the first side, pressing lightly with a spatula, until golden brown and crisp.
Carefully flip the sandwiches and cook for another 3-4 minutes on the other side, until golden brown and the cheese filling is melted and gooey.
Remove the sandwiches from the skillet and allow them to rest for 1-2 minutes before cutting them in half for serving.
Serve warm and enjoy your Grilled Creamy Cream Cheese Sandwiches!
