Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Gather all your ingredients and equipment: a frying pan, a small bowl, a spatula, and a butter knife.
- Spread 1 tablespoon of butter evenly on one side of each slice of whole-wheat bread.
- Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of brown sugar evenly over the buttered side of one bread slice. Repeat with the second slice, making sure the brown sugar sticks well to the butter.
- Place one slice of cheddar cheese on the unbuttered side of the first slice of bread (the side without the brown sugar).
- Place the second slice of cheddar cheese on top of the first slice of cheese.
- Top with the second slice of bread, making sure the brown sugar side is facing out.
- Heat a frying pan over medium heat. When hot, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter and let it melt evenly across the pan.
- Once the butter is melted and the pan is hot, place the assembled sandwich in the pan gently. Be sure to keep the brown sugar sides facing out.
- Cook for about 2-3 minutes on one side, pressing down gently with a spatula to ensure even grilling and melting of the cheese.
- Carefully flip the sandwich using the spatula, and cook the other side for another 2-3 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and the cheddar cheese is melted.
- Remove the sandwich from the pan and let it cool for a minute or two.
- Slice the sandwich diagonally if desired.
- Serve immediately while the cheese is gooey and melty. Enjoy your sweet and savory brown sugar-glazed grilled cheddar cheese sandwich!
Tips:
- For an even meltier cheese experience, try using a cheese blend that includes both cheddar and mozzarella.
- To achieve the perfect golden-brown crust, make sure your skillet is preheated to medium-low heat before cooking the sandwich.
- For a crunchier texture, consider using day-old bread or toasting the bread slightly before assembling the sandwich.
- Feel free to add other ingredients like sliced tomatoes or crispy bacon between the cheese slices to add another layer of flavor.
There you have it – a sweet and savory twist on the traditional grilled cheese sandwich. With the added touch of brown sugar glaze, this dish is sure to impress your taste buds and possibly make its way into your list of favorite comfort foods.
