Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces bread slices
- 200 grams cheddar cheese, shredded
- 2 tablespoons butter, softened
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tablespoons whole milk
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon paprika
Instructions
Preheat your oven to broil (high setting) and place a rack about 6 inches below the heat source.
Spread the softened butter evenly on one side of each bread slice. Arrange the slices butter-side down on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or foil.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine shredded cheddar cheese, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, milk, black pepper, and paprika. Mix until the ingredients are well incorporated and form a thick, spreadable mixture.
Evenly distribute the cheese mixture on the non-buttered side of each bread slice, spreading it all the way to the edges to avoid burning.
Place the baking sheet under the broiler and toast for 3-5 minutes, keeping a close eye to prevent burning. The cheese should be melted, bubbly, and slightly golden brown.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the toasted cheese cool slightly before serving.
Serve warm and enjoy your savory toasted cheese with a side of soup or salad, or on its own!
