Copycat Starbucks Grilled Cheese Sandwich

This copycat version of the Starbucks Grilled Cheese Sandwich is a gooey sharp and tangy grilled cheese sandwiched between thick sourdough slices that are coated in a parmesan butter spread. Then it all comes together in a pan when it's toasted up to melty perfection.

Servings: 2 sandwiches

Ingredients

  • 4 slices sourdough bread
  • 5 tablespoons butter softened
  • 4 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder or 1 garlic clove finely grated (use whichever depending on how strong garlic flavor you prefer)
  • 4 slices sharp white cheddar
  • 2 slices mozzarella cheese

Instructions

Make the Butter Spread

  • In a bowl, add the softened butter. Melt in the microwave about 10-15 seconds until it just starts to slightly melt. Add in the parmesan and garlic. Mix together until smooth.

Assemble Sandwich

  • To build the grilled cheese sandwich, spread the garlic parmesan butter liberally on the outside of each piece of bread. Add in two slices of sharp cheddar and one slice of mozzarella cheese to the non-buttered side.

Grill The Sandwich

  • In a large nonstick skillet over low heat, add in the sandwich and cook about 5 minutes per side or until golden brown and toasted. Low and slow is key so the cheese melts before the bread browns too quickly. Remove the grilled cheese from the skillet, slice in half and enjoy immediately.
