Method

1

Shred the cheddar cheese if starting with a block. Drain the roasted red peppers well and finely chop them.

2

In a small saucepan over low heat, combine the shredded cheddar, chopped roasted peppers, mayonnaise, and softened cream cheese.

3

Stir constantly until the cheese melts and the mixture is smooth and warm, about 3–5 minutes. Add the yellow mustard, paprika, salt, and black pepper; stir to combine.

4

Spread softened butter on one side of each bread slice. Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat and toast the buttered sides until golden, about 1–2 minutes per side.

5

Spread the warm pimento cheese mixture onto two of the toasted bread slices, then top with the remaining slices, toasted sides facing inward.

6

Slice the sandwiches in half if desired and serve warm.
