Spread 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise evenly onto one side of each bread slice using a butter knife.
Place the cheddar cheese slice on top of the mayo-spread side of one bread piece.
If desired, layer with a lettuce leaf or a tomato slice on top of the cheese for added freshness.
Sprinkle a pinch of salt and black pepper over the cheese or optional toppings.
Cover the cheese with the second slice of bread, mayo side facing inwards, forming a sandwich.
Heat a skillet over medium-low heat and add 1 teaspoon of butter, allowing it to melt and coat the pan evenly.
Place the sandwich in the skillet and toast for 1-2 minutes on one side, pressing lightly with a spatula to ensure even browning.
Flip the sandwich carefully and toast the other side for another 1-2 minutes until golden and the cheese inside starts to melt.
Remove the sandwich from the skillet, slice it diagonally if desired, and serve warm.
