Step-by-Step Instructions for Garlic Bread Grilled Cheese
  1. In a small mixing bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of softened butter, ½ tablespoon of garlic powder, and ½ teaspoon of dried parsley. Mix until smooth to create the garlic butter.
  2. Spread the garlic butter mixture on one side of each of the 4 slices of bread.
  3. Heat a skillet over medium heat and place two slices of bread, butter-side down, in the skillet. Sprinkle half of the cheese blend evenly over each slice.
  4. Top with the remaining two slices of bread, butter-side up, and gently press down.
  5. Cook for about 4-5 minutes until the bottom is golden brown. Keep an eye to avoid burning.
  6. Flip the sandwiches carefully and cook for another 4-5 minutes until golden brown on the other side.
  7. Remove the sandwiches and let them cool slightly on a wire rack. Slice diagonally and serve immediately.
