Technically, This Is a Grilled Cheese Sandwich Too
Currently Wegmans has this chocolate bread made with organic flour, cocoa and chocolate chips. It's more substantial than cake, not quite as sweet, and pretty damn good.
And I couldn't help it: I thought, what sort of grilled cheese sandwich can I make with that?
So I cut two slices--you have to slice it yourself; the chocolate chips means they can't run it through the automatic slicers, because they get all mucked up--spread cream cheese on one slice and raspberry jam on the other, then mushed it together, grilled it and ate it for breakfast.
God, it was delicious! The grilling meant the chocolate chips got warm and melty, as did the jam. It was decadent and not all that healthy, I realize, but still, it was a very nice way to start the day on a lazy weekend.

That sounds really good, and sort of European. After all, isn't it France that sees Nutella as a breakfast spread on bread?
It was really good, Juti, but it seemed thoroughly North American to me. Someone from somewhere else correct me if I'm wrong--do people elsewhere smear sweetened cream cheese on bread products? If they don't, well, they need to get with the program.
