Spread softened butter on one side of each bread slice.
Spread softened cream cheese evenly onto one slice of bread.
Top the cream cheese with sliced Muenster cheese.
Carefully place the other slice of bread on top, buttered side out.
Heat a skillet or panini press to medium heat. If using a George Foreman grill, preheat according to manufacturer's instructions.
Place the sandwich on the preheated surface and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted and gooey. Press down gently with a spatula to ensure even cooking and melting.
Carefully remove the grilled cheese from the heat and let it cool slightly before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
