Sweet Tooth Weekend - Danish Toasts with Melted Dark Chocolate and Gouda

Just...craving for something buttery, sugary, and perhaps sultry.

Danish toasts with melted dark chocolate and Gouda -

Ingredients (for 1 to 2 servings)?

• 2 thick slices of Danish toast (can be substitute with milk toast)
• 1/3 cup of dark chocolate chips
• 1 Gouda cheese square
• 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter

How?

Melt the butter in a non-stick pan with medium heat. Add in the toasts and wait till the color turns slightly browned. Only need to heat up one side of the bread, but toasting both sides should yield an even crunchier texture.

Once the toasts are ready, transfer onto a baking dish with un-seared side up. Lay the dark chocolate chips on one toast and Gouda cheese square on the other. Into the oven with medium high heat till the chocolate starts to melt. The chocolate chips might still look like individual chips when in fact already softened, poke the chocolate with a stick and see if softened already.

Remove from heat and combine the toasts, cut in half before serving.

Other milky cheese varieties also work well with this dessert version of grilled sandwich, Swiss and Mozzarella can be two other options.
