Brie and Strawberry Grilled Cheese Sandwiches

• 8 slices angel food cake 
• 4 thick slices brie 
• soft butter to spread on the cake 
• 3 cups sliced strawberries 
• 1/4 cup water 
• 1/4 cup sugar

Directions

1. Heat a saute pan or griddle over medium heat. Spread a little soft butter on one side of each piece of cake.  
2. Once the griddle is hot, place 4 pieces of the cake on it, butter side down. Layer strawberries and brie on top of each piece and then top each with another piece of cake, butter side up.  
3. Meanwhile, combine 1.5 cups sliced strawberries, water and sugar in a small saucepan over high heat. Cover and let simmer about 3-4 minutes or until strawberries are soft.  
4. Flip the sandwiches over when the cake is nicely browned on one side. 
5. Once the strawberries in the sauce are soft, pour the sauce into the blender (if you want it chunky and have a potato masher that would work too) take the center piece out of the lid to the blender and place the lid on the blender. Cover the open hole with a tea towel and blend on low for a couple seconds. Just until it’s all blended up.  
6. Once the sandwiches are golden on the other side, remove from the pan and serve with the sauce or powdered sugar.
