Sweet Skillet Sandwiches

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Pound Cake and Brie Grilled Cheese is a Sugary Take on the Classic

— July 12, 2012 — Lifestyle
Enjoy the sweeter side of toasty sandwiches with this Pound Cake and Brie Grilled Cheese. Yes, that's right! Now you can enjoy the appealing texture of a gooey, golden sandwich for dessert. Created by Deb, from the blog 'Just Short of Crazy,' this sweet take on the struggling student favorite will have you looking at the classic snack in a whole new light.

To make these sweet stunners, Deb swapped the bread for two thick cut slices of buttery pound cake. Instead of the usual American cheddar, she used a creamy mild tasting brie and a slather of peach preserves. The brie brings a touch of complexity to the otherwise sweet sandwich, but with cake standing in for bread, there's no chance you'll be confusing this sugary number with your lunch anytime soon.

Crisp, gooey and golden brown, this Pound Cake and Brie Grilled Cheese delivers the texture of the classic sandwich with a surprisingly sweet taste.
