- 1/4 cup of unsalted butter, softened

- Carefully flip the sandwich and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until the second side is golden brown and the cheese is fully melted.
- Remove from the skillet and let it cool for a minute before slicing and serving.
- Repeat the process with the remaining slices of bread and colored cheese to make the rest of the rainbow grilled cheese sandwiches.
