Ingredients
  

4 slices of chocolate pound cake

4 slices of strawberry pound cake

4 slices of vanilla pound cake

1 cup cream cheese, softened

1/2 cup powdered sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/4 cup heavy cream

1/2 cup fresh strawberries, sliced

1/2 cup mini chocolate chips

4 tablespoons butter, softened

Whipped cream (for topping, optional)

Sprinkles (for garnish, optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Cream Cheese Filling: In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Use a hand mixer to beat until smooth and creamy. Gradually add the heavy cream and mix until fluffy.

    Assemble the Sandwiches: Take one slice of chocolate pound cake and spread a generous layer of the cream cheese filling on it, followed by a layer of sliced strawberries and a sprinkle of mini chocolate chips. Top with a slice of strawberry pound cake, and repeat the filling steps. Finish the sandwich with a slice of vanilla pound cake on top.

      Repeat for Remaining Sandwiches: Continue to assemble three additional sandwiches, alternating the cake flavors to create a layered effect.

        Butter the Outside: Spread softened butter on one side of each sandwich, ensuring it's evenly coated for a rich, golden finish.

          Grill the Sandwiches: Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat. Place each sandwich butter-side down on the skillet. Grill for about 3-4 minutes until the bottom is golden brown. Carefully flip and grill the other side for another 3-4 minutes or until golden and the filling is warm.

            Serve: Once grilled, cut each sandwich in half to reveal the beautiful layers. Serve with a dollop of whipped cream on the side and a sprinkle of colorful sprinkles on top for an added festive touch.

              Enjoy: Serve warm and enjoy your delectable Grilled Neapolitan Cake Sandwich Melt, perfect for a dessert or sweet brunch treat!
