Step-by-Step Instructions

In a mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese, melted chocolate, and butter. Blend until smooth and creamy.
Lightly spread a thin layer of butter on one side of each of the thick slices of bread. Preheat a skillet over medium heat.
Toast the bread for about 2-3 minutes or until golden and crisp.
Flip the slices and generously spread the cheese-chocolate mixture onto the unbuttered side.
Place the toast back into the skillet, cheese-chocolate side up, cover, and cook for 2-4 minutes until the chocolate melts.
Remove from skillet, drizzle with melted chocolate or sprinkle with powdered sugar, and serve immediately.
