Ingredients
  

  • 1/4 cup real mayonnaise for spreading
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon coarse sea salt for seasoning
  • 4 ounces cream cheese softened
  • 1/4 teaspoon coarse sea salt for cheese mixture
  • 1/4 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
  • dash cayenne optional
  • 4 sharp cheddar cheese slices
  • 4 provolone cheese slices
  • 4 slices Artisan bread like The Rustic Oven Artisan White Bread
  • 1 teaspoon honey optional drizzle

Equipment

  • Non-stick skillet or griddle
  • Spatula
  • Mixing bowl
  • Knife

Method
 

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, shredded Parmesan cheese, 1/4 teaspoon of coarse sea salt, and garlic powder. If you’re feeling adventurous, add a dash of cayenne for a touch of heat. Mix until well blended and creamy.
  2. Spread a generous layer of the cheese mixture on one side of each slice of bread. Then, layer two slices of cheddar and two slices of provolone on top of the cheese spread, ensuring an even distribution.
  3. On the outside of each slice of bread, spread a thin layer of real mayonnaise. This will create a crispy and golden crust when grilled.
  4. Heat your non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Once hot, place the sandwich, mayonnaise side down, onto the skillet. Grill for about 3-4 minutes until the bread is golden brown. Carefully flip the sandwich using a spatula and grill the other side for another 3-4 minutes until the cheese is melted and the bread is perfectly toasted.
  5. Once your sandwich is golden and melty, remove it from the skillet. If you’re feeling extra indulgent, drizzle a teaspoon of honey over the top before slicing it in half. Serve warm and watch as everyone devours this incredible Disney Grilled Cheese!

Notes

  • Ensure your skillet is preheated properly for the crispiest bread.
  • Experiment with different cheeses; gouda or mozzarella could be delicious!
  • Using a heavy pan or a panini press can help ensure even grilling.
  • Allow the sandwich to cool for a minute before slicing to prevent the cheese from oozing out too much.
