grilled cheese sandwich

Ingredients

• 2 slices of bread
• 1 tablespoon butter, softened
• 2 slices of cheese (cheddar, American, or your favorite)

Instructions

1. Spread softened butter evenly on one side of each slice of bread.
2. Place one slice of bread, butter-side down, in a cold skillet.
3. Place cheese slices on top of the bread in the skillet.
4. Top with the second slice of bread, butter-side up.
5. Turn heat to medium-low.
6. Cook for 3-5 minutes per side, or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted and gooey.
7. Remove from skillet and cut in half before serving.

Notes

• Using a cold skillet helps the bread toast evenly.
• For extra crispy bread, use a non-stick skillet.
• Don't press down on the sandwich while it's cooking, as this will squeeze out the melted cheese.
• Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
