Ingredients
Scale
- 8 slices of Texas toast or thick-sliced sandwich bread
- 4 tablespoons of unsalted butter
- 4 slices of medium cheddar cheese
- 4 slices of Gouda cheese
- 4 slices of Havarti cheese
Instructions
- Begin by spreading 1/2 tablespoon of butter on one side of each slice of bread.
- Place a skillet over medium-low heat and put 2 slices of bread into the skillet with the buttered side down.
- Assemble your sandwich by stacking the cheeses on one piece of toast in this order: cheddar, Havarti, and then Gouda.
- While the bread is toasting to a golden brown, close the sandwich with the crispy sides on the outside.
- Continue cooking until the bread turns a rich golden brown, flipping the sandwich once. Press down lightly to help the bread adhere to the cheese. The total cooking time should be about 5-6 minutes. Maintaining medium-low heat allows the bread to toast slowly and gives the cheese ample time to melt and fuse with the bread.
- Once the cheese has fully melted, and the bread is beautifully browned, remove the sandwich to a plate, and cut it in half diagonally for serving.
- Repeat the process with the next sandwich.
Notes
- You can customize your Three-Cheese Grilled Cheese Sandwich by adding your favorite ingredients like bacon, tomato, or avocado for extra flavor and texture.
- Cooking the sandwich over medium-low heat is essential. It ensures the bread toasts evenly and the cheese melts to perfection without burning.
- Serve this classic comfort food with a side of tomato soup, coleslaw, or a simple green salad for a satisfying meal.
- Experiment with different combinations of cheese to suit your taste and discover your perfect cheese trio.
- Don’t rush the cooking process; allow the cheese to melt slowly to achieve that ooey-gooey goodness.
