Ingredients

4 slices of sourdough bread

3 tablespoons truffle butter (softened)

2 cups shredded Gruyère cheese

1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

1 tablespoon freshly grated truffle (optional, for garnish)

Sea salt to taste

Cracked black pepper to taste

Instructions

Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat.

Take 2 slices of sourdough bread; spread 1 tablespoon of truffle butter on one side of each slice.

Place one slice of bread butter-side down in the skillet.

Evenly sprinkle half the Gruyère and mozzarella cheese over the bread in the skillet.

Add the second slice of bread, butter-side up, and cook until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes.

Carefully flip the sandwich with a spatula and reduce the heat to medium-low. Cook for another 3-4 minutes until the cheese is melted and the other side is golden.

Remove from skillet and let cool for a minute before slicing in half.

Repeat the process with the remaining bread and cheese to make a second sandwich.

If desired, sprinkle freshly grated truffle on top of the grilled cheese and season with sea salt and cracked black pepper for an extra layer of flavor.
