Description

Disney’s Grilled Cheese is a deliciously indulgent and cheesy sandwich featuring a blend of sharp cheddar, provolone, and creamy double Gloucester cheeses, all layered between artisan-style white bread. Enhanced with a garlic mayo spread and grilled to golden perfection on the stovetop, it’s a perfect comfort food that melts in your mouth and satisfies cravings for a classic grilled cheese with a gourmet twist.


Ingredients

Scale

Bread and Cheese

  • 8 slices artisan-style white bread
  • 8 slices cheddar cheese
  • 8 slices provolone cheese
  • 1/2 cup shredded double Gloucester cheese or additional cheddar

Spreads and Seasonings

  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup cream cheese, softened

For Cooking

  • 2 tablespoons softened butter (for pan)

Instructions

  1. Prepare Garlic Mayo Spread: In a small bowl, thoroughly combine the mayonnaise, garlic powder, and salt to create a flavorful garlic mayo spread that will coat the outside of your sandwiches.
  2. Mix Cream Cheese Mixture: In a separate bowl, blend the softened cream cheese with the shredded double Gloucester (or extra cheddar) cheese until smooth and evenly combined for a creamy, cheesy layer.
  3. Assemble Sandwiches: Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly on one side of 4 bread slices. Layer each with one slice of cheddar cheese and one slice of provolone cheese. Top each with the remaining bread slices, pressing gently to form sandwiches.
  4. Apply Garlic Mayo on Bread Outsides: Use a spatula or knife to spread the prepared garlic mayo mixture on the outside surfaces of each sandwich, mimicking how butter is applied to grill the bread.
  5. Heat Skillet: Preheat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium-low heat to ensure gentle cooking for a golden crust without burning.
  6. Grill Sandwiches: Add a small amount of softened butter to the skillet. Place the sandwiches in the skillet and cook each side for about 2 to 4 minutes until the bread is golden brown and the cheeses inside are melted and gooey.
  7. Serve: Remove sandwiches from the skillet, slice in half if desired, and serve warm. Enjoy this rich grilled cheese on its own or paired with a bowl of tomato soup.

Notes

  • Cook low and slow on medium-low to medium heat for the perfect golden crust and melty center without burning.
  • This grilled cheese is fantastic paired with tomato soup or served as a fun copycat meal for Disney fans craving theme park comfort food.
  • Use softened cream cheese to ensure easy spreading and even melting with the shredded cheese.
  • You can substitute double Gloucester with sharp cheddar if unavailable.
