Ingredients

4 servings

¼ cup salted butter (softened)
¼ cup kewpie mayo (or regular mayonnaise)
¼ tsp garlic powder
¼ tsp onion powder
⅛ teaspoon smoked paprika
8 slices white bread (or sourdough)
8 slices cheddar cheese (or cheese of choice)

Instructions

In a small bowl, use a hand mixer to beat butter until fluffy, about 1-2 minutes. Mix in mayo, garlic powder, onion powder, and smoked paprika until smooth.
Preheat a large skillet or electric griddle over low heat.
Spread 1 tablespoon of the butternaise over one side of each piece of bread. Place 4 slices of bread in the skillet, butternaise side down.
Top the bread with cheddar cheese slices and the remaining slice of bread, butternaise side out.
Cook until bread is golden and crisp, about 4-5 minutes. Flip and cook the other side until golden and the cheese is melty.
