Ingredients

12 1/2-inch-thick slices of challah, brioche or pound cake
3 tablespoons Bing cherry preserves
Two 4-ounce good-quality bittersweet chocolate bars, each cut into thirds
1/3 cup unsalted butter, melted
confectioners’ sugar, for garnish

Directions

Preheat a grill, griddle or nonstick gril pan to medium-low.

Lay the bread or cake slices on a work surface. Brush each of 6 slices with 1/2 tablespoon of the cherry preserves.

Top each brushed slice with 1 piece of the chocolate. Top with the remaining bread or cake slices.

Brush the melted butter on both sides of each sandwich, and grill the sandwiches until the chocolate has melted and the bread is crisp and golden brown – 2 to 4 minutes per side.

Cut the sandwiches in half or in quarters, dust with confectioners’ sugar, and serve warm.
