Lay out the slices of bread on a clean surface. Spread mayonnaise evenly on one side of each slice.
On the un-mayonnaised side of two slices, layer 1 slice of American cheese, 2 slices of bologna, a generous sprinkle of potato chips, and another slice of American cheese.
Top each sandwich with the remaining slices of bread, mayonnaise side facing out.
Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in a skillet or griddle over medium heat.
Carefully place the prepared sandwiches in the skillet. Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, pressing down gently with a spatula, until the bread is golden brown and crispy, and the cheese is melted.
Repeat with the remaining butter if cooking in batches.
Remove from the skillet, slice the paninis in half, and serve immediately for a warm, crunchy, and cheesy bite.
