1
Preheat a sandwich press according to the manufacturers instructions.
-
2
If you dont have an electric press, place a grill pan or heavy skillet over medium-high heat.
-
3
When building the sandwiches, make sure to distribute the ingredients evenly across the bread so the sandwiches press flat.
-

First, combine the sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl.

Spread butter on one side of each slice of bread and sprinkle with the cinnamon sugar.

6
Flip the bread over and spread with dulce de leche on the other side.

9
Cover each with the remaining 4 slices of bread, dulce de leche side down, to make 4 sandwiches.

10
Put the sandwiches in the panini maker or grill pan.

Close the press (or, if using a pan, place another heavy pan on top of the sandwich to press it down).
-
12
Grill until the brioche is crisp on both sides and the cinnamon sugar caramelizes, about 2 minutes.
-

(If youre cooking the sandwich in a pan on the stove, after 3 minutes flip it over with a spatula to crisp the other side for a couple of minutes.)
