Ingredients

  • 1/2 stick salted butter softened (55g)
  • 3 garlic cloves minced
  • cracked black pepper
  • 2 brioche buns or dinner rolls cut in half
  • 4 cheese slices

Instructions

  • Pre heat the oven to 460F / 240c
  • In a bowl, mix together the butter, garlic and about 6 turns of cracked black pepper. Combine well.
  • Spread the butter mixture evenly over each half of the buns.
  • Place in a baking sheet and top each roll with a slice of cheese.
  • Place in the oven for 5 minutes and then transfer to under the broiler (grill) for another 5 minutes until the cheese is bubbling.
  • Let sit for a minute or two too cool before serving.

Notes

  • Soften your butter before using it. This will make it much easier to combine with the garlic and spread more easily. Take your butter out of the fridge about 30 minutes before you need to use it.
  • Watch closely when the bread is in the oven and under the boiler. It will cook quickly, so take care not to burn the edges.
