Cook the bacon in a pan (or under the grill) until crisp, then set aside.
In the same pan, cook the mushrooms until their moisture has evaporated and they’re golden. Stir in the garlic for 30 seconds and season with pepper (and a little salt if needed).
Spread soft cheese over one side of each slice of bread.
Divide bacon and mushrooms between two slices, then top with the remaining bread to make sandwiches.
Butter the outside of the bread. Cook over medium heat, pressing lightly, until deeply golden on both sides and the filling is hot and melty.
Serve immediately.
