Lay the the slices of bread on a clean surface. Spread about one third of the butter on one side of the first slice. Flip the middle slice and spread one third of the butter thinly on both of its sides. Spread the final third of the butter on one side of the last slice.
Place the first slice of bread, butter-side down, in a cold skillet. Pile half of the cheddar and half of the mozzarella onto the bread. Place the middle slice on top of the cheese. Top with the remaining cheddar and mozzarella, then place the final slice of bread on top, butter-side up.
Cover the skillet with a lid and set over medium-low heat. Cook for 5 minutes until the bottom is deep golden. Remove the lid, flip the sandwich carefully, and press down gently with a spatula. Cover again and cook for 5 minutes more until the cheese visibly oozes and the bread is toasted. Done when cheese is melted and bread is golden, 160°F.
