Step 3
Place 1 slice of cheese on each slice of bread. Then evenly top with prepared macaroni and cheese and close the sandwiches.
Step 4
Spread 1 tablespoon butter on the outside of each slice of bread.
Step 5
When unit beeps to signal it has preheated, open hood and place sandwiches on griddle. Close hood to begin cooking. Cook for 6 minutes, flipping halfway through.
