2 slices of your favorite sandwich bread 2 tsp unsalted butter, at room temperature 1 cup grated old cheddar cheese

LAY bread on counter. Butter one side of each slice. Turn over one slice and sprinkle with cheese. Top with second slice of bread, butter side up.

HEAT a small non-stick frying pan over medium. When hot, add sandwich. Cook until bread is deep golden brown on both sides and cheese starts to melt, about 2 min per side. Reduce heat to medium-low if sandwich browns before cheese starts to melt. Using a spatula, remove sandwich from pan. Slice in half before serving.
