This Italian cheese is so versatile that it can be used in both sweet and savory recipes from cheesecakes to lasagnas.


4 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 cloves garlic
1 tablespoon fresh chives, finely chopped
4 slices American Cheese
4 slices bread
kosher salt
sliced dill pickles
In a small saucepan over low heat add butter. Grate garlic cloves on a microplane directly over butter. Add chives and salt to taste. Whisk ingredients together while butter is melting and set aside.
Place a skillet over med-high heat. With a pastry brush, brush one piece of bread generously with the butter mixture and place in middle of heated skillet. Add two pieces of the cheese and top with another piece of bread. Generously brush the top piece as well.
Cook for about 3 minutes on the first side (check after 2) and about 1 minute on the second, until golden brown and cheese is melted. Repeat for second sandwich.
Remove from pan and place sliced dill pickle inside sandwich and serve.
I guarantee you will never have grilled cheese the old fashioned way again. I also recommend you use real American cheese, not the processed cheese. It makes all the difference in the taste.

What's the secret ingredient in these cakes? Pudding mix. It not only adds flavor but it gives the cake a richer, creamier texture. No one will know your secret ingredient!
Love buffalo wings? Get that same hot, zippy flavor in everything from deviled eggs to enchiladas. And of course: wings.
