I purchased a vintage Betty Crocker cookbook from ebay, copyright 1950.

I came across this recipe that I might try, decadent as it is - grilled cheese is my husband's favorite food, no kidding.

Here it is:

Crispy, golden outside.. melting, tender inside. Like glorified cheese sandwiches.

Arrange in greased baking dish, 6 thin slices of bread.

Cover with 6 thick slices of sharp cheese. (1/8 inch thick)

Top with 6 more slices of bread to create "sandwiches".

Pour over all a mixture of:

4 egg yolks or 2 eggs (beaten)

2 1/2 cups milk

1 tsp. salt

1/8 tsp. pepper

1/4 tsp. dry mustard

Chill in refrigerator so milk mixture will soften bread. Bake until partially dried and golden brown on top.

Bake 1 hour at 350 degrees.

Makes 6 servings

Serve hot.

Suggestion - serve with a creamed vegetable.
