Ingredients

1 6-ounce can tomato paste

3 tablespoons chopped canned chipotle chilies*

1 tablespoon mild-flavored (light) molasses

12 3/4-inch-thick slices sourdough bread

18 ounces extra-sharp New York cheddar cheese, thinly sliced

4 plum tomatoes, cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices

1 small red onion, thinly sliced

1 cup fresh cilantro leaves

6 tablespoons butter, room temperature

Directions

Blend tomato paste, chilies, and molasses in processor until smooth. Spread 1 tablespoon chipotle mixture over 1 side of each bread slice.

Arrange 6 bread slices, chipotle side up, on work surface. Divide half of cheese among bread slices. Top with tomatoes, then onion, cilantro, and remaining cheese. Top sandwiches with remaining bread, chipotle side down. Spread butter on outside of sandwich tops and bottoms.

Heat 2 large griddles over medium heat. Place 3 sandwiches on each griddle; cook until bread is golden and cheese is melted, about 5 minutes per side.

*Canned chipotle chilies in adobo sauce are available at Latin American markets and most supermarkets.

This sounds wonderful. How hot are the chipotle peppers? BTW, if you spray the pan with butter Pam, if makes a nice, crispy sandwich.

Hi sweetwords, here is a link to read about Chipotle peppers: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chipotle
They are a little bit hotter than a Jalapeno. If you're worried about the heat you could just use less of them in the mixture. I wouldn't cut them out entirely, though. But that's me.
