Beat together 1.5 cups of sharp cheddar cheese and 1 stick of butter until well combined.

Set the oven to 375°F.

Add 1.25 tablespoons of heavy cream, 1 large egg, 1 teaspoon of Worcestershire sauce, 0.5 teaspoon of table salt, 0.5 teaspoon of dry mustard, and hot sauce to the cheese and butter mixture. Mix until well combined.

Cut the crusts off the loaf of bread.

Spread the cheese mixture on one half of each slice of bread.

Put the slices back together and cut them into quarters or halves as desired.

Place the assembled cheese dreams on a lightly greased baking sheet, about an inch apart.

Bake in the oven for about 15 minutes until golden brown.
