Grilled Cheese Dippers
Description
This recipe involves removing crusts from soft bread slices and rolling each flattened piece tightly around sliced Havarti cheese to encase it. The cheese may be flavored as regular or dill variety. Butter is melted in a skillet and the cheese rolls are placed seam-side down to seal them during cooking. Frequent turning ensures even browning on all sides while melting the cheese inside. The process takes about 3 minutes until the bread is golden and the cheese is fully melted.
The dippers are typically paired with tomato soup for dipping, leveraging their compact, melted cheese interior with buttery, crisp bread exterior. They serve well as snacks or appetizers. Variations include using different bread, cheese, or substituting olive oil for butter. Leftovers can be kept warm for a short time or refrigerated and reheated to melt cheese again.
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons butter unsalted
- 6 lices bread soft
- 6 ounces havarti cheese regular or dill, Roth brand
Instructions
- Remove the crust from the bread and save for another recipe.
- Use a rolling pin to roll the bread into flattened squares. Place a few slices of Havarti cheese on each piece of bread.
- Use both hands, tightly roll up the bread, keeping the cheese intact inside.
- In a large nonstick skillet over medium heat, melt 2 tablespoons butter. Add the dippers to skillet, seam-side down. Cook, turning often with tongs, until the bread is golden all around and the cheese is melted, about 3 minutes.
- Dip into your favorite tomato soup
Notes
- Enjoy grilled cheese dippers immediately for best texture and flavor.
- Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator in an airtight container for a couple of days.
- To reheat, warm them in a pan or toaster oven until the cheese is melted again.
- Variety in bread and cheese types is possible; olive oil can substitute butter for frying if preferred.
- Check local grocery stores for specific Havarti cheese brands used in the recipe.
