Ingredients
- 4 slices Sourdough bread
- 2 slices Sharp cheddar cheese
- 2 slices Mozzarella cheese
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 0.25 teaspoons Garlic powder
- 1 pinch Salt
Directions
Step 1
In a small bowl, mix the softened butter with garlic powder and a pinch of salt to create a garlic butter spread.
Step 2
Lay out the sourdough bread slices on a flat surface. Spread a thin, even layer of the garlic butter on one side of each slice.
Step 3
On the unbuttered side of two slices, place one slice of sharp cheddar cheese and one slice of mozzarella cheese, slightly overlapping them for even coverage.
Step 4
Top each cheese-covered slice with the remaining bread slices, buttered-side up, to form two sandwiches.
Step 5
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat.
Step 6
Place the sandwiches in the skillet, buttered-side down. Press gently with a spatula and cook for 3-4 minutes, or until the bottom is golden brown and crispy.
Step 7
Carefully flip the sandwiches and cook the other side for another 3-4 minutes, pressing gently, until the bread is golden and the cheeses are melted.
Step 8
Remove the sandwiches from the skillet and let them cool for 1-2 minutes before slicing them diagonally.
Step 9
Serve your Two Tone Grilled Cheese immediately, optionally with tomato soup or a green salad on the side.
