Recipe Notes
- Recipe can easily be doubled or tripled to make additional sandwiches. I used about ½ a wheel of brie of this recipe.
How to cook in a skillet:
- Grease a skillet and heat over medium/low heat. While that is going on, it's time to make your sandwiches!
- Make your sandwiches, and butter each side of the bread that will touch the skillet. Cook for 3-4 minutes per side, making sure to keep the heat medium to avoid burning. Once toasty, flip and cook 2-3 minutes on the other side.
