Ingredients
2 slices thick-cut white bread
2 tablespoons cream cheese, softened
1 ½ tablespoons strawberry jam
1 tablespoon butter, for frying
1 teaspoon powdered sugar, for dusting
Instructions
1. In a small bowl, stir the softened cream cheese until smooth. Add a drop of vanilla extract or a bit of powdered sugar if you like.
2. Spread the cream cheese on one side of a bread slice. Spread strawberry jam on another slice.
3. Press the two slices together to form a sandwich, filling evenly to the edges.
4. Lightly butter the outsides of the sandwich.
5. Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat.
6. Place the sandwich in the skillet and cook for 2–3 minutes on each side until golden brown.
7. Remove from the pan and let rest for one minute.
8. Dust with powdered sugar, slice, and serve warm.
Notes
Let the sandwich rest for one minute before cutting to avoid a messy filling spill.
Use softened cream cheese for easy spreading and smoother texture.
Cook over medium heat to crisp the bread evenly without burning.
