What You’ll Need to Make A Grilled Cheese Sandwich

How to Make A Grilled Cheese Sandwich

Preheat a pan on medium heat. While the pan is heating, butter two slices of bread. It is best to use butter at room temperature so that it spreads easily.

Place the cheese on the bread. Use enough cheese to cover the slice of bread completely. Place the second slice of bread on top of the cheese with the buttered side facing up.Cook until the bottom is golden brown. Use a wide spatula to carefully flip the sandwich and continue to cook until it is golden brown.

Remove to a cutting board .

Slice in half diagonally before serving and trim off the edges or use a cookie cutter to cut a seasonal shape as shown. Serve immediately.
