1-First Step: Make the cream cheese spread Start by placing the 1/2 cup cream cheese, 1/2 cup shredded Double Gloucester or sharp cheddar cheese, 2 tablespoons heavy cream, and 1/4 teaspoon coarse salt into a food processor. Blend until the mixture is smooth and creamy. This step gives the sandwich its rich center, so take a few seconds to scrape down the bowl if needed.

2-Second Step: Mix the garlic spread In a separate bowl, combine 1 cup mayonnaise, 1 1/2 teaspoons minced garlic, and 1/2 teaspoon coarse salt. Stir well until the garlic is evenly mixed through the mayo. The result should be thick, punchy, and ready to spread on the bread.

3-Third Step: Set up the bread and cheese Lay out 8 slices artisan bread on a clean work surface. On 4 slices, place 2 medium cheddar cheese slices each. On the other 4 slices, place 2 provolone cheese slices each. This gives you a balanced mix of cheeses and makes assembly much easier. If your cheese slices are larger than the bread, use one slice of each cheese per sandwich and tear it into two pieces. That little trick helps the cheese fit neatly without hanging far over the edges.

4-Fourth Step: Add the cream cheese spread Divide the cream cheese spread evenly among the provolone halves. Spread it gently so it sits on top of the provolone layer. This creamy layer helps create that soft, melty middle people love in a Disneyland Grilled Cheese.

5-Fifth Step: Build the sandwiches Place the cheddar slices on top of the cream cheese spread so each sandwich has one cheddar side and one provolone side. Then close each sandwich with the remaining bread slices. Press lightly so everything sticks together without squeezing out the filling.

6-Sixth Step: Coat the outside with garlic spread Spread the garlic mayo mixture on each bread slice, covering the outside of every sandwich. Make sure the layer is even from edge to edge. This is what helps the bread turn golden and crisp while adding savory flavor.

7-Seventh Step: Heat the pan and cook Set a skillet or non-stick pan over medium heat. A heavy-duty skillet may cause sticking, so a griddle or non-stick pan is a safer choice here. Once the pan is warm, place the sandwiches in the skillet and cook for about 2 minutes per side. Flip carefully using a wide spatula. The goal is a deep golden crust and fully melted cheese. If your heat is too high, the bread may brown too fast before the cheese softens, so keep the burner at medium.

8-Eighth Step: Serve while hot Once both sides are golden brown and the cheese is melted, move the sandwiches to a cutting board. Let them rest for a minute so the filling settles a bit. Slice and serve right away while the cheese is still gooey and warm.
