Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Grate the Cheese

    Using a cheese grater, grate the cheddar cheese into a bowl. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Bread

    If you are using unsalted butter, soften it at room temperature. Optionally, mix in garlic powder and black pepper for added flavor.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Toast the Bread

    Heat a skillet over medium heat. Spread a thin layer of the butter mixture on one side of each slice of bread. Place the bread slices butter-side down in the skillet.

  2. 4

    Add Cheese

    Once the bread is golden brown, sprinkle grated cheddar cheese generously over the unbuttered side of each slice.

  3. 5

    Melt the Cheese

    Cover the skillet with a lid and let the cheese melt for about 2-3 minutes, or until bubbly and golden.

  4. 6

    Season

    Sprinkle chili flakes and additional black pepper on top of the melted cheese according to your taste preference.

Serving

  1. 7

    Serve

    Remove the cheesy toast from the skillet and let it cool slightly before serving. Cut into halves or quarters and enjoy!
