1
Butter the Bread
Spread one tablespoon of unsalted butter evenly on one side of each slice of bread.

2
Assemble the Sandwich
Place one slice of bread butter-side down in a skillet. Layer two slices of cheddar cheese on top of the bread, then place the second slice of bread on top, butter-side up.
3
Grill the Sandwich
Heat the skillet over medium heat. Cook the sandwich for about 3-4 minutes, or until the bottom slice of bread is golden brown.
4
Flip the Sandwich
Carefully flip the sandwich using a spatula. Cook for another 3-4 minutes on the other side until the cheese is melted and the bread is golden brown.
5
Serve
Remove the sandwich from the skillet and let it sit for a minute before cutting it in half. Serve warm.
