When I was younger, I was a fat kid. Now I like to think I’m just a little husky. I remember I used to make myself the craziest sandwiches and invite friends over to try them out. Rumor has it that Luther Vandross used to make sandwiches with glazed doughnuts instead of bread. My hero! I used my friends as an excuse to be an artist, but in reality I was just hungry. My friend Stefanie used to come over all the time. She would come over after school and I would make sandwiches for us while she sang love songs to me. We had so much fun. Years later we drifted apart and she signed a record deal and now goes by the name of Lady Gaga. She forgot about all the sandwiches I made her, so fuck you Stefanie!

Actually, I don’t know that crazy monster. That’s just a fantasy in my head. I came up with this sandwich as a fat kid spending a summer in Belgium and trying to get all things Belgian in my belly. I know it sounds really odd, but the sweetness of the chocolate and the saltiness of the cheese create such a nice and smooth combination that it works very well.

1 French Baguette

1/4 pound Sliced Swiss Cheese

1 bar of premium Milk Chocolate

Butter

Pre-heat your oven to 350 degrees. It’s hard to say how much you’ll need; it really depends on how big you want your sandwich. But cut a piece of bread and slice it open. Apply a thin layer of butter and put a couple of slices of Swiss cheese on both sides of the bread. Leave it open and put in the oven for about 10 minutes. Your cheese should be melted and gooey; if not, leave for a few more minutes. Once melted take it out of the oven and add a couple of pieces of milk chocolate. Close the sandwich and let it rest for a minute.
