Mom's version of the "kicked up" grilled cheese was to assemble the sandwich in the normal manner but then she would dip it into a bowl of egg-nog and proceed in the manner of making french toast. Once it was all "golden and gooey" she would put it on the plate with a good size dollop of raspberry jam and dust with powdered sugar. It was especially good around the holidays when the local dairies offered up their fresh egg-nogs.
If you can't find egg-nog "out of season" feel free to use your favorite french toast batter recipe, but there is a canned egg-nog that is available year around and is acceptable for this application.
Try this and I hope you enjoy it as much as I always did.
