Steps:
- Butter one slice of bread and place in frying pan or on griddle. Place cheese on bread.
- Butter the second slice of bread and place butter side up on top of cheese.
- Fry on medium heat until golden brown, turn over and fry other side of sandwich. Remove from heat and spread jelly on the TOP of the sandwich and serve.
- I prefer mozzarella or Colby jack cheese with strawberry jelly or American cheese with grape jelly.

ULTIMATE GRILLED CHEESE
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Arrange the bacon on a baking rack set over a sheet pan in a single layer and roast for 20 to 30 minutes, until nicely browned. Drain on a plate lined with paper towels and cut in 1-inch pieces.
- Meanwhile, combine the mayonnaise, mustard, Parmesan, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Lay 12 slices of bread on a board and spread each one lightly with butter. Flip the slices and spread each one generously with the mayonnaise mixture. Don't neglect the corners!
- Grate the cheeses in a food processor fitted with the largest grating disk and combine. Distribute the bacon evenly on half the slices of bread. Pile 1/3 cup grated cheese evenly on top of the bacon and top with the remaining bread slices, sauce side down.
- Meanwhile, heat an electric panini press. When the press is hot, cook the sandwiches for 3 to 5 minutes in batches until the bread is toasted and the cheese is melted. Allow to cool for 2 minutes. Cut in half and serve warm.
Tips:
- Use a variety of cheeses to create a flavorful and gooey grilled cheese sandwich. Some good options include cheddar, mozzarella, Gruyère, and brie.
- Butter both sides of the bread before grilling to ensure a golden brown and crispy crust.
- Add additional ingredients to your grilled cheese sandwich to make it extra special. Some popular options include bacon, ham, avocado, and tomato.
