Ingredients
  

8 slices of white or whole-grain bread

8 ounces of sharp cheddar cheese, sliced

4 ounces of fresh mozzarella cheese, sliced

4 tablespoons of unsalted butter, softened

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon Italian herb seasoning

Marinara sauce or creamy tomato soup for dipping (optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Bread: Using a sharp knife, carefully trim the crusts off each slice of bread. This will result in neat, uniform edges, making your dippers more visually appealing and enjoyable to eat.

    Layer the Cheese: On four slices of the crustless bread, layer a generous amount of sharp cheddar cheese followed by slices of fresh mozzarella. Top with the remaining four slices of bread to form sandwiches.

      Create the Garlic Herb Butter: In a small mixing bowl, combine the softened unsalted butter, garlic powder, and Italian herb seasoning. Stir well until the mixture is evenly combined and fragrant. This will give your dippers a delicious flavor and help achieve a lovely golden crust when cooked.

        Butter the Bread: Evenly spread a thin layer of the seasoned butter mixture on the outer sides of each sandwich. This will enhance the browning and crispiness when grilled.

          Grill the Sandwiches: Preheat a non-stick skillet or grill pan over medium heat. Place the buttered sandwiches in the pan without overcrowding. Grill them for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they reach a golden brown color and the cheese is melted and gooey.

            Cut into Dippers: Once grilled to perfection, remove the sandwiches from the pan and let them cool for 1 minute. Using a sharp knife, cut each sandwich into strips or triangles for easy dipping.

              Serve: Arrange the cheesy mini grilled cheese dippers beautifully on a serving platter. Accompany with warm marinara sauce or a bowl of creamy tomato soup for delightful dipping. Enjoy your scrumptious cheesy snack!
