Notes
- Pick your cheese wisely! While sharp cheddar brings a classic flavor, feel free to mix it up with melty options like Monterey Jack or smoked Gouda for an extra kick!
- Don’t skimp on the butter spread. Make sure to coat the bread evenly with the Parmesan butter so your sandwiches toast up golden and crisp on the outside.
- We love to use Texas Toast, the thick slices hold up well; however, you can use your favorite bread instead.
