The Ultimate Grilled Cheese - cooking recipe

Ingredients

8 slices Italian bread (1/2 inch thick)
3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
6 ounces extra-sharp cheddar cheese, coarsely shredded
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened

Preparation

Heat a large skillet over medium heat.
Lay braed on a work surface. Spread each slice lightly on one side with mustard and then divide the cheddar among 4 slices, lightly packing cheese.
Top with remaining 4 slices of bread.
Spread 1 tablespoon of butter on top of sandwiches.
Place 2 sandwiches, butter side down, in skillet. Place another skillet on top of sandwiches to compress them. Cook until bottoms are golden, about 2 minutes.
Spread 1/2 tablespoon butter on unbuttered side of grilled sandwiches. Flip them, place skillet on top, and cook about 2 minutes, until sandwiches are golden and cheese is melted.
Repeat with the 2 remaining sandwiches and remaining 1/2 tablespoon of butter.
