Instructions

  1. 1

    Toss the cheddar and mozzarella together in a bowl so every quesadilla gets both cheeses.

  2. 2

    Heat a large skillet over medium heat and melt a small pat of butter.

  3. 3

    Lay a tortilla in the pan, scatter about 3/4 cup of cheese over it, and top with a second tortilla.

  4. 4

    Cook until the bottom is golden and crisp, about 2 minutes, then flip with a wide spatula and cook 2 minutes more.

  5. 5

    Repeat with the remaining tortillas and cheese, adding butter between batches.

  6. 6

    Rest 1 minute so the cheese sets slightly, cut into wedges, and serve with salsa and sour cream.
