Instructions

  1. Spread the butter on 1 side of each slice. Stack 2 slices of American cheese, 2 slices of mozzarella, 1/4 cup shredded gruyere cheese and 2 more slices of American cheese on each sandwich. Close the sandwiches leaving the butter sides out.
  2. Heat a large nonstick pan to a touch less than medium heat. Once the pan is hot add 2 tablespoons of butter. Once it melts add both sandwiches.
  3. Rotate the sandwiches as required to achieve even cooking and use spatula or burger press to get better pan contact. Flip the sandwiches every minute or so, two to three times, to achieve even cooking without burning the bread. If the bread starts burning lower the heat and/or temporarily remove the sandwiches from the pan.
  4. Once the grilled cheeses are browned and the cheese has melted, remove from the pan and serve immediately. Enjoy!

Notes

  • If using a whole uncut loaf, cut the pieces about 1/2" thick.
  • Pressing the grilled cheese with a spatula or smashburger press works great.
  • Any type of melty cheese can be used.
  • Leftovers can be saved for up to 3 days in the fridge and are best reheated over medium-low in a pan.
