Ingredients
- 8 slices Pumpernickel bread
- 4 ounces Sharp cheddar cheese
- 2 medium-sized Dill pickles
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 2 teaspoons Honey mustard
- 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Lay out the pumpernickel slices on a clean work surface and spread a thin layer of honey mustard on one side of each slice.
Step 2
Cut the sharp cheddar cheese into thin slices. Place an even layer of cheese on half of the bread slices (4 slices).
Step 3
Thinly slice the dill pickles lengthwise or into rounds, depending on preference, and layer the pickles over the cheese.
Step 4
Top each sandwich with another slice of pumpernickel bread, honey mustard side facing inward, to form 4 sandwiches.
Step 5
Spread a thin, even layer of unsalted butter on the outside of each sandwich (both the top and bottom slices).
Step 6
Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat. Once hot, place the sandwiches onto the skillet.
Step 7
Cook each side for 2-3 minutes or until the bread is golden brown and crispy, and the cheese is fully melted. Use a spatula to gently press down on the sandwiches while grilling.
Step 8
Remove the grilled sandwiches from the skillet and transfer them to a cutting board. Allow them to cool slightly for 1-2 minutes.
Step 9
Cut each sandwich into quarters to create bite-sized pieces. If desired, garnish with fresh parsley for a pop of color.
Step 10
Serve warm and enjoy your Mini Pumpernickel Grilled Cheese and Pickle Sandwiches!
