Ultimate Cheesy Sourdough Grilled Sandwich

Ingredients

- 8 slices sourdough bread
- 4 tablespoons butter, softened
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 4 slices cheddar cheese
- 4 slices American cheese

Instructions

1. Prepare the Bread:
- Lay out the slices of sourdough bread on a clean surface.
- Spread 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise evenly on one side of each slice. This will be the outer side for grilling, ensuring a golden, crispy crust.

2. Assemble the Sandwiches:
- On the non-mayonnaise side of four slices of bread, place one slice of cheddar cheese followed by one slice of American cheese. Top each with another slice of bread, mayonnaise side facing out.

3. Heat the Pan:
- Place a non-stick skillet or frying pan on the stove over medium heat. Allow it to heat for about 2 minutes for even cooking.

4. Grill the Sandwiches:
- Add 1 tablespoon of softened butter to the skillet, allowing it to melt and coat the pan.
- Place two sandwiches into the skillet, ensuring they do not overcrowd the pan.
- Grill each side for approximately 3-4 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is fully melted. Adjust heat as needed to avoid burning.

5. Finish Cooking:
- Repeat the previous step for the remaining two sandwiches, adding more butter to the pan if necessary.

6. Serve:
- Remove the sandwiches from the skillet and slice them in half diagonally.
- Serve immediately for the best taste experience, as the cheese will be hot and gooey.
