Ingredients

• 2 pieces Bread slices
• 1 piece Cheddar cheese slice
• 2 pieces Cooked bacon strips
• 1 tablespoon Butter
• 1 teaspoon Mayonnaise (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Place the two slices of bread on a clean surface and spread a thin layer of butter on one side of each slice.

Step 2

Flip the bread slices over so the unbuttered side is facing up. Spread mayonnaise on the unbuttered side of one slice, if using.

Step 3

Place the cheddar cheese slice on top of the mayonnaise (or on the plain bread, if not using mayonnaise).

Step 4

Lay the cooked bacon strips evenly on top of the cheese.

Step 5

Top with the second slice of bread, buttered side facing out.

Step 6

Place the sandwich on a microwave-safe plate and cover it with a microwave-safe paper towel to prevent splatter.

Step 7

Microwave on high for 1 minute. Check the sandwich and press gently to ensure the cheese is melting. If needed, microwave for an additional 30 seconds to 1 minute, ensuring the bread does not overheat or become too soggy.

Step 8

Remove the sandwich from the microwave and allow it to cool for 1-2 minutes before cutting it in half and serving.
