For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a sprinkle of sea salt over the chocolate chips before toasting.
If you don't have a toaster oven, a skillet or panini press works just as well. Cook over medium heat until golden brown and the cheese is melted.
Feel free to experiment with different types of chocolate chips, such as dark chocolate or white chocolate.
For a more decadent treat, add a drizzle of honey or maple syrup after toasting.
