Preparation
  1. Butter one side of each slice of bread.
  2. Spread peanut butter and blackberry preserve on bottom slice of bread.
  3. Top with bacon and cheese slices.
  4. Close with top slice of bread and press closed.
  5. Grill over medium-low heat for 2 to 3 minutes on each side or until golden and cheese is melted.


Foodie Byte: Use a bold flavored cheese with good melting abilities, such as sharp white cheddar cheese, to stand up to all the other flavors in this gooey-rich grilled cheese.
