Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Bread

    Take 4 slices of bread and lay them out on a clean cutting board or surface.

  2. 2

    Add the Cheese

    Place 1 slice of cheddar cheese and 1 slice of American cheese on top of 2 slices of bread each, creating 2 cheese sandwiches.

  3. 3

    Top the Sandwiches

    Cover the cheese with the remaining slices of bread to form 2 complete sandwiches.

Cooking

  1. 4

    Heat the Pan

    In a non-stick skillet, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat until it starts to sizzle.

  2. 5

    Grill the Sandwiches

    Place the sandwiches in the skillet. Grill for about 2-3 minutes until the bread is golden brown.

  3. 6

    Flip the Sandwiches

    Carefully flip the sandwiches using a spatula. Add the remaining tablespoon of butter to the skillet if needed.

  4. 7

    Cook Until Golden

    Grill the other side for another 2-3 minutes until golden brown and the cheese is melted.

Serving

    Remove the grilled cheese sandwiches from the skillet. Let them cool for a minute, then slice into quarters and serve warm.
