Instructions
-
Prepare the Bread: Lay the slices of bread on your countertop. Spread the Dijon mustard evenly on one side of each slice. π₯
-
Assemble the Sandwiches: Place two slices of cheddar cheese on two of the bread slices. Add one slice of Swiss cheese to each. Cover with the remaining bread slices, mustard side down, to form a sandwich. Press them together lightly. π₯ͺ
-
Prepare the Egg Mixture: In a shallow bowl, crack the eggs and whisk until the yolks and whites are fully blended. Whisk in the milk, salt, and pepper. π₯πΆοΈ
-
Soak the Sandwiches: Lay one sandwich in the egg mixture. Use two spatulas, one on top and one underneath, to carefully turn the sandwich and soak both sides. Place it on a sheet of waxed paper. Repeat with the second sandwich, ensuring they soak up all the remaining egg mixture. π³
-
Cook the Sandwiches: Place a skillet over medium heat and add the butter, swirling to coat the surface evenly. Lay the sandwiches in the skillet and cook for about 3 minutes, or until the bottom is golden brown. ππ§
-
Flip and Finish Cooking: Using two spatulas, turn each sandwich over. Cook for another 3 minutes, or until the other side is golden brown and the cheese is melted and oozy. π₯ͺπ§
-
Serve: Remove from the skillet and serve immediately. Enjoy the delightful combination of crispy, buttery bread and melty cheese! ππ½οΈ
