'Sizzler' Style Cheesy Toast

Having recently moved to Queensland I was craving Sizzler because it closed down years ago in Victoria but was still going strong in the sunshine state. After going two or tree times I'm certainly over it (maybe I'm not good at restraining myself at all you can eat buffets...) but I still enjoy the cheese toast. Here is a pretty good replica. You can use any sort of bread or bread rolls, but if you want to duplicate the original make them thick slices of white bread.

Cooking Time: 2 minutes
Preparation Time: 10 minutes
Serves: 6

12 slices thickly sliced white bread
250g butter, softened
1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, finely grated

Mix the softened butter with the Parmesan cheese.
Heat the grill or griddle pan and 'toast' your bread until lightly browned.
Spread the bread thickly on the UNCOOKED side, and set aside. Allow the spread to melt a little into the surface of the bread.
Heat the frypan over the highest hotplate setting, and quickly 'sizzle' your toast, spread side down for 20-30 seconds to melt the spread and crisp the surface.
Press on the bread with a spatula to get the spread all hot and super crispy.
Serve immediately
