2 tablespoons cream

Instructions

Beat the cream cheese with the cream, honey, half of the ground black pepper, and half of the fresh herbs until well combined. Set aside.
Lightly coat each side of the bread with nonstick cooking spray and grill on both sides until grill marks are formed. Allow the grilled bread to cool for a couple of minutes.
Smear the cream cheese mixture evenly over the grilled bread.
Top each slice with a scant tablespoon of the rhubarb compote and optionally, drizzle over a little bit of honey.
Sprinkle over the remaining fresh herbs and the remaining ground black pepper.
Serve and enjoy!
