Grilled Cheese Sticks Recipe

These Baked Grilled Cheese Sticks are an adult version of grilled cheese; they are prepared in the oven, allowing you to prepare large batches in advance that will serve a crowd.

Last December, I served these grilled cheese appetizer sticks and my sweet and sour meatballs at our Christmas party.

I literally threw these sticks in the oven as a last-minute appetizer and am SO happy I did because baked grilled cheese is SO much more practical!

Funny thing is, I was sick and could not breathe through my nose, which is not a big deal except that you cannot taste ANYTHING when your nose is stuffed up, so when I was preparing this recipe, I completely wing it while crossing my fingers.

Because they were such a huge hit (AND SO EASY), I told friends and family I would post a recipe. So here it is! I paired these sticks here with a tomato soup shooter to make it more of an adult appetizer, but kids will enjoy them too. I was shocked when people were raving over “the grilled cheese” because I thought the kids at the party would be the only guests eating it but apparently the adults LOVED it too.

Lightly butter one side of each slice of Italian bread. Sandwich all three slices of cheese, with buttered sides facing out. Heat a mdium skillet to medium-high heat and add sandwich.
