- Slice your Velveeta
- Cover a slice of bread completely with cheese
- Place a second slice of bread on top and butter it completely and generously
- Add 1 tablespoon of butter to the skillet
- Heat your skillet on medium high
- When the butter bubbles, place your sandwich non-buttered side down into the skillet
- Fry until the bottom is golden brown – it will take only 2-3 minutes
- Turn it over with a spatula, press down lightly and fry until your cheese is melting and the second side is golden brown. I prefer mine just shy of too brown. It gives it a crispy crunch, then melts in your mouth.
- Plate, slice in half diagonally and serve with pickles. The acidity of the pickle is a perfect counterpoint to the savory sandwich
And just one more thing…
The latest fad is substituting mayonnaise for butter. I love mayo and I tried it. Don’t be fooled because you can’t beat real butter!
