- 1/2 tablespoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon dried parsley
- 4 slices of bread
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella and cheddar cheese blend
Instructions
- Combine softened butter, garlic powder, and dried parsley in a small bowl until smooth.
- Evenly spread the garlic butter on one side of each bread slice.
- Place two slices buttered side down on a skillet or board and distribute half the cheese on each.
- Cover with the remaining bread slices, buttered side up, to form sandwiches.
- Warm a skillet on low heat and cook the sandwiches for about 4 to 5 minutes on one side until golden.
- Flip the sandwiches carefully and cook the other side for an additional 4 to 5 minutes until the cheese melts and the bread is crispy.
