Truffled Grilled Cheese Sandwiches with Creamy Tomato Soup

The second course for the birthday extravaganza was the only repeat. It was repeated due to popular demand. The truffled grilled cheese sandwiches with creamy tomato soup comes from Chanterelle.

This is definitely not your ordinary grilled cheese or tomato soup. For starters, you make your own brioche, grate fontina, and make your own truffle butter. Just think about that for a minute- pure heaven. Additionally it is probably one of the most expensive grilled cheese sandwiches around.

Tomato soup- growing up I always thought I hated it. As it turns out I hate the condensed in a red can tomato soup. No offense to Campbell's cuz I love me some chicken noodle, but I cannot stand their tomato soup. This however has zero in common with that soup and is absolutely amazing, that could have a little to do with all the heavy cream. Overall it's fairly easy and if you make the full recipe there will be plenty to reheat and as long as you do it on the stove its equally as delicious rewarmed.
