These hot sandwiches are packed with the vibrant flavors of a variety of cheeses, as they're covered in cheese inside and out. To make them crispy and cheesy on the outside, the bread is buttered and sprinkled with grated Parmesan. The sandwich filling is made with three different types of melty cheese: cheddar, fontina, and Gruyere. Toast the sandwiches in a frying pan and enjoy them while they're hot and gooey.

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:

Heat a cast iron or nonstick skillet over medium-low heat.
Spread one side of each slice of bread with a little softened butter. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of Parmesan cheese over each slice to help it stick to the butter. Flip one slice over and sprinkle the cheese mixture on top (this will be the filling). Place the other slice of bread on top, Parmesan side up.

Carefully transfer the sandwich to the pan and cook on both sides until the filling in the center is melted. Be careful not to burn the outside of the sandwich; it should be a beautiful deep golden brown. Cut in half and enjoy!
