Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 ounces Velveeta cheese
- 4 slices White or wheat sandwich bread
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon Vegetable oil (optional)
Instructions
Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium-low heat.
Slice the Velveeta cheese into even slabs, approximately 1/4-inch thick, so it covers the surface of the sandwich evenly.
Butter one side of each bread slice generously. If desired, add 1 teaspoon of vegetable oil to the skillet to enhance browning.
Place one slice of bread butter-side down on the skillet. Lay 2 ounces of Velveeta cheese slices evenly on top of the bread.
Cover the cheese with another slice of bread, butter-side facing up.
Cook for 3-4 minutes, pressing gently with a spatula to ensure even toasting. Check occasionally to confirm the bottom is golden brown but not burned.
Carefully flip the sandwich using the spatula. Cook the other side for an additional 3-4 minutes until it is golden brown and the cheese inside is melted and gooey.
Repeat the process for the second sandwich, if making two servings.
Remove the sandwiches from the skillet and let them rest for 1 minute before slicing them diagonally.
Serve immediately for a warm, melty, and satisfying meal.
