Caramelized Sugar Grilled Cheese Sandwich
By: Carolina Gelen
With a delicate, sweet crust wrapped around melty Tillamook Sharp Cheddar and Whole Milk Mozzarella, it’s easy to understand just how irresistible each bite of this grilled cheese sandwich gets. It’s a little sweet, perfectly savory, with the ideal amount of crunch in each bite.
10MINserves 2
Ingredients
2 slices brioche
2 tbsp granulated sugar
Place a nonstick or well-seasoned cast-iron skillet on medium heat.
Spread a tablespoon of butter on each brioche slice. Sprinkle a tablespoon of sugar on the buttered side of each slice.
Place a slice of bread, sugar-side down, in the skillet. Layer the Tillamook Farmstyle Sharp Cheddar Shreds and Tillamook Farmstyle Whole Milk Mozzarella Shreds on top, then top with the remaining slice of bread, sugar-side up.
Cook undisturbed for 1 1/2 to 2 minutes. Flip and cook for 1 to 2 minutes on its other side, until an even sugar crust forms at the bottom. Carefully remove from the pan and cool on a cooling rack for a minute, until the sugar layer has hardened completely.
Slice and serve.
