Ingredients
  

  • 4-6 slices of sandwich bread
  • 4 slices of cheddar cheese per sandwich
  • 2 slices of fontina cheese per sandwich
  • mayonnaise (optional)
  • 1 tbsp butter

Instructions
 

  • Lay half of your slices of bread on a counter or cutting board. Spread mayo (if using - I highly recommend) on each slice of bread.
  • Slice cheddar cheese and fontina cheese and place cheese slices on each slice of bread. Top with remaining slices of bread.
  • In a small skillet, melt a small pat of butter. Once it has melted, add the cheese sandwich to the skillet. Cover the skillet with a lid so the cheese melts faster. Flip over and cook other side. Make sure the cheese is melted all the way through the sandwich. Once the bread is toasty and the cheese is melted, transfer the sandwich to a cutting board. Let it cool slightly while you cook the other sandwiches.
  • Once all the sandwiches are cooked, take a very sharp bread knife and cut the sandwiches into strips. Add to a platter or plate.
  • Heat up a small bowl of marinara sauce and use it as a dipping sauce for the grilled cheese sticks.
  • *Note - you can make as many of these as you'd like, cut them and store them in the fridge for later. Pull out as many as you want at a time, heat them up in a toaster oven or microwave and they are ready to go!
