6Tbspunsalted butter
16inchesparchment paperoptional but recommended
Instructions
Cut parchment into 4 equal strips, about 4 inches wide each. Spread butter on one side of each slice of bread. Place one slice buttered side down on a piece of parchment paper. Top with 1 1/2 cheese slices. Top with a second slice of bread, butter side up. Wrap sandwich in parchment and place in bag. Repeat with remaining bread and cheese.
To cook after freezing, heat skillet to medium heat. Unwrap 1 sandwich from parchment. Add sandwich to pan. Cover and cook 3-4 minutes or until browned on the bottom. Flip sandwich, cover and cook 3-4 minutes or until second side is browned. Repeat with remaining sandwiches.
Notes
Normally I wouldn't cover a grilled cheese sandwich when I cook it, but I found that not covering it resulted in a sandwich that was nicely browned on the outside but still frozen/unmelted on the inside. Covering the pan helps trap in the heat and melt the cheese for that ooey gooey meltiness we crave. We served these with Slow Cooker Creamy Tomato Soup and it was, to be completely honest, a killer combo.
