Spread the butter over the outsides of the bread slices. Smear the inside of one slice with the garlic scape sandwich spread.

Heat a large heavy bottomed skillet over medium heat. Place the bread slice with the garlic scape sandwich spread butter-side down in the skillet. Top with mozzarella slices and the second slice of bread, butter-side up. Cook in the skillet until the sandwich is browned on each side, and the cheese is melted inside.
