🍳 Instructions
1. Prepare the Ingredients:

- Top with the second slice of bread, buttered side facing up.
3. Grill:
- Cook over medium-low heat for about 2–3 minutes per side, pressing gently with a spatula.
- Flip when golden brown and cheese begins to melt.

💡 Tips:
- Use thick-cut bread for extra structure and calories.
- Swap cheddar for mozzarella, Swiss, or gouda for different flavors.
