Equipment

  • ghost cookie cutters
  • Knife
  • non-stick griddle or skillet

Ingredients

  • hearty white bread
  • dijon mustard optional
  • olive oil mayo optional
  • sliced cheese - Swiss cheddar, and muenster
  • 4 tbsp butter softened

Instructions

  • Heat a nonstick griddle to 375 degrees or place a non-stick skillet over medium-hight heat.
  • Slice bread into ½-¾ inch slices.
  • Use ghost cookie cutters to cut out shapes.
  • Spread dijon mustard or mayo on the inside of both slices of bread, if desired. I always use mustard.
  • Top the bottom slice with 3 slices of cheese, 1 each of Swiss, cheddar, and muenster. (Feel free to swap cheese for your favorite varieties.) Add the top piece of bread.
  • Spread softened butter on both the bottom and top of the sandwich.
  • Grill over medium-high heat until bottom is toasted and cheese is beginning to melt. Flip and continue cooking until the other side is lightly browned.
  • Serve immediately.

Notes

Ghoulish grilled cheese is delicious (and spooky) with tomato soup. Try this easy creamy tomato soup with orzo.
