Spread butter mixture on one side of each bread slice evenly.

Mix mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, honey, and garlic powder for interior spread.

Spread mustard mixture on unbuttered side of 4 bread slices generously.

Add layer of scrambled eggs on top of cream cheese base.

Break bacon into pieces and distribute evenly over eggs layer.

Add cheddar and Swiss cheese slices on top of bacon pieces.

Sprinkle with chives, thyme, and a pinch of paprika for flavor.

Top with remaining bread slices, buttered-side up, pressing gently together.
