Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 slices of choice bread
  • cream cheese softened, measure with your heart
  • 1 TBSP brown sugar
  • 1 TSP cinnamon
  • 1-2 TBSP butter

Method
 

  1. To start, in a small bowl mix together brown sugar and cinnamon. Then smear on softened cream cheese to one slice of bread gently. You may toast your bread slightly to give it more structure before adding cream cheese so the bread does not tear.
  2. Next, sprinkle on top of cream cheese the brown sugar and cinnamon mixture and apply the second slice of bread to create a sandwich.
  3. Now add about 1 TBSP of butter to your skillet that is set to medium-low heat. Allow the butter to melt and cover the skillet's surface.
  4. Once melted, add your sandwich to the skillet and allow to cook for 1-2 minutes or until golden brown to your choosing. Then flip the sandwich to cook the other side. You may choose to add another pat of butter for the second side of the sandwich.

Notes

There is no measurement for the cream cheese because I do not believe cream cheese should ever be put in a "box" so to speak. Use the cream cheese are liberally as you desire.
Serve your delectable sweet grilled cheese sandwich on a plate with a fork and knife if you choose any of these available toppings:
  • dust with powdered sugar
  • drizzle lightly with maple syrup
  • top with crushed pecans or walnuts
