Bacon Wrapped Grilled Cheese Fingers

Instructions:

  1. Prep the sandwiches
    • Butter one side of each bread slice.
    • Place 4 slices butter-side down on a cutting board.
    • Add cheese on top, then cover with the other bread slice (butter-side up).
  2. Grill the sandwiches
    • Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat.
    • Cook the sandwiches until golden and melty inside, about 2–3 minutes per side.
    • Let cool slightly, then cut each sandwich into 3 “fingers” (long strips).
  3. Wrap with bacon
    • Take one finger and wrap it tightly with a slice of bacon (you may need 2 slices depending on length).
    • Secure ends with a toothpick if needed.
  4. Cook the bacon
    • Option A: Oven → Place wrapped fingers on a wire rack set over a baking sheet. Bake at 400°F (200°C) for 18–20 minutes, until bacon is crisp.
    • Option B: Skillet → Pan-fry on medium heat, turning, until bacon is fully cooked and crispy.
  5. Serve
    • Let cool slightly before serving.
    • Dip into marinara, ranch, or ketchup for the ultimate indulgence. 😋

👉 These can be made ahead up to the grilling step—then just wrap in bacon and bake before serving.

Would you like me to also give you a spicy version with jalapeños or hot sauce inside for a fiery twist? 🌶️
