Ingredients

4 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature

1/4 cup mayonnaise

1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika

Salt and freshly ground black pepper

8 slices sourdough bread

2 tablespoons cream cheese, at room temperature

1 cup shredded Cheddar

Directions

  1. Preheat a skillet over medium heat. Mix the butter, mayo and smoked paprika in a small bowl until well combined. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  2. Lightly butter one side of each of the bread slices with the mayo mixture. Add the cream cheese to the remaining mayo mixture and mix well to combine. Spread some of the cream cheese mixture on the other side of each of the bread slices.
  3. Distribute the Cheddar on the cream cheese-side of 4 of the bread slices. Place the remaining 4 bread slices on top. Place the sandwiches in the skillet and cook until golden on the bottom, about 3 minutes. Flip the sandwiches and place a heavy-bottomed skillet on top of the sandwiches and cook until golden brown and the cheese is melted, about 4 minutes.

This was good, fast and super easy to make. My husband absolutely said it was the best grilled cheese he's ever had. We'll definitely be making it again, but I think next time we won't use shredded cheese and I'll experiment with the cheese on the inside. I wasn't a huge fan of the shredded cheese, but over all it was delicious!
