These Grilled Cheese Roll-Ups are a fun and easy twist on the classic grilled cheese sandwich. Soft slices of bread are trimmed of their crusts, rolled flat, filled with melted cheese, and cooked in a buttery skillet until golden and crispy on the outside, with gooey cheese inside. Perfect as a quick snack or light meal, these roll-ups are simple to make and irresistibly delicious.

Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 6 slices of bread
  • 1 cup thinly shredded cheese (such as cheddar, American, or your choice)
  • 2 tablespoons butter

Instructions

  1. Trim the bread: Remove the crusts from each slice of bread to make rolling easier and create a neat, uniform roll-up.
  2. Roll the bread flat: Using a rolling pin or your hands, gently flatten each slice of bread to make it flexible for rolling.
  3. Add cheese: Spread about 2 tablespoons of shredded cheese evenly on each flattened bread slice. You can also use sliced American cheese for a different texture.
  4. Roll it up tightly: Carefully roll each bread slice around the cheese to form a tight spiral. Secure with toothpicks if needed to hold the shape while cooking.
  5. Heat the skillet: Warm a skillet over medium to medium-low heat and add the butter, allowing it to melt and coat the pan evenly.
  6. Cook the roll-ups: Place the cheese roll-ups seam-side down in the skillet and cook for 5 to 8 minutes, turning them periodically with tongs to brown all sides evenly until the bread is golden and the cheese is melted.
  7. Serve: Remove the roll-ups from the skillet, let them cool slightly, then cut in half if desired and serve warm.

Notes

  • You can use any type of cheese you prefer, like cheddar, mozzarella, or a mix.
  • Using toothpicks helps keep the roll-ups intact while cooking.
  • Adjust cooking time as needed to achieve your desired level of crispiness.
  • Serve with marinara sauce or ketchup for dipping if you like.
